Chapter VIII: Enter the Gauntlet: Part 1 - The Gladiator:

The gang had now been on the road, for 2 days and in that time they had already seen diseases, death of a friend and a big headed megalomaniac crazier than Vlad the Impaler.

But as the four walked out of the underground tunnels onto dry land nothing could've prepared them for what lay ahead.
As the four stared into the distance, Nick turned to Aly, the group had only met her merely an hour ago. Yet she seemed like she had been there a long time. Aly wore a black shirt with a white hoodie and ripped denim jeans. She also had fiery red hair, and Nick wondered if she had a fiery temper to match.

But as Nick looked into the distance he could see tall futuristic styled skyscrapers rising into the clouds, a massive glass-like dome surrounding the city the sky above was a dark blue. But Nick could see something in the air out of the corner of his eye. But it couldn't be could it? It was...! Nick had seen a flying car, Tammie and Robin were amazed by all of this but Aly was unfazed. She said she'd seen them dozens of times.

The group walked through from the outskirts of the city into the city center, the place was sprawling with skyscrapers, the people just went about on their busy lives, with robotic policemen scurrying about the city, and right slap-bang in the heart of the city was the most unmodernized part of it, The Colosseum. This colosseum however was unlike the one Nick had seen at home, as this one was used for battling rather than being a tourist attraction. The four heroes walked in to see a person in a centurion outfit just finish battling a tourist.

As the tourist walked away, the Centurion approached the group. He spoke to Nick 'You look tough, Centurion challenge tough guy, make him look puny.' he said. 'I would normally but we are just on our way out...' Nick spoke as the front entrance closed. 'You no leave, until you fight Centurion, orders of Beyonder.' 'Oh yeah, and where is "Mister High and Mighty?' Tammie asked sarcastically. 'Up on Presidential Throne.'
Centurion said. 'Now we do battle you win, you free, you lose, you crushed. Deal?' 'Sure thing...' Nick said very unsure of what he was doing. 'Wait Nick!' Tammie shouted. 'What's up?' Nick asked. 'I want to battle him on behalf of us all...' She said. 'Well, if you are sure...' Nick said as Tammie nodded. 'I will be in the crowd cheering for ya!' 'Thanks Nick!' She said. Tammie looked around at the masses of people in the audience, she could see Nick and Aly but where was Robin?'

***

'So what do you want me to do mistress?' Robin asked Witch Doctor. 'Kill all the group aside from Nick. Look, there's an opportunity to kill Tammie, see that stone pillar?' She said. 'You want me to kill her with that huge thing?' he exclaimed. 'You will work it out, until next time... Bye bye!' as Witch Doctor's hologram disappeared.
'Ready Cincinno?' Robin asked.

***

Back on the battlefield, Centurion was explaining the rules. 'First a survival game, second a battle, ready?' Centurion shouted. Tammie nodded as two cages fell from the ceiling, one contained a Gigalith, the other contained a Tyranitar. 'Go, Victini and Mismagius!' Tammie shouted. 'Victini use Reversal on Tyranitar and Mismagius use Shadow Ball on Gigalith!'
Victini hit Tyranitar with an amazing force and knocked it out in one hit as Tyranitar fell onto it's back helplessly.

Victini started to celebrate as Mismagius' Shadow Ball missed Gigalith, Gigalith used Rock Slide on Mismagius and Victini, it suddenly knocked Mismagius out and Victini wasn't far off, 'Come on Victini, I believe in you!' Tammie shouted. Victini got up quickly after hearing the hope inside it's trainer's voice. 'Victini use Reversal!' Tammie shouted, as yet again the little fire type Pokemon attacked Gigalith with tremendous force, knocking it out cold. 'Yay!' Tammie shouted as she picked up Victini and hugged it.

***

'Now Cincinno, use Hyper Voice on that pillar.' Robin shouted as Cincinno reluctantly did as it was told as the pillar started to crack and fall.

***

Tammie was dancing with Victini when Nick noticed the pillar falling and shouted at Tammie 'Look out...!'

***

The Beyonder looked at the accident happening before his eyes, and laughed insanely as the pillar was falling.

Chapter IX: Enter the Gauntlet: Part 2 - Showdown of the Titans:

Nick ran towards Tammie, 'Go Empoleon!' he shouted 'Use Flash Cannon!' as Empoleon fired the metallic blast towards the stone pillar and fired as Nick ran into Tammie who had no idea what was happening until Empoleon crushed the pillar into pieces with the Flash Cannon attack.

'Are you OK?' Nick asked Tammie as he offered her his hand to get up. Tammie had tears in her eyes as she pulled Nick in for an unsuspecting hug. Nick hugged her to assure her she was OK before Gladiator spoke 'You lovebirds finished yet?' Tammie scowled at Gladiator 'Why don't you go and entertain your master?!' To which Gladiator got enraged. 'You got first task done so me give you task two... ME!!' Tammie stared at the man in a full gladiator suit, with a obscene helmet covering his face 'You want to battle me?' she asked. 'No duh, me want date you. We do 2 on 2.' he growled. 'Fine but Mismagius is out of it.' Tammie said. 'You fail task then!' Gladiator exclaimed. 'Hey Tammie, use this guy!' Nick said as he threw Empoleon's Pokeball at her. Tammie caught it as Empoleon walked towards her.

'Go Scizor and Bisharp.' Gladiator shouted. 'Empoleon use Hydro Pump on Bisharp, Victini use Flamethrower on Scizor!' Tammie shouted. 'Scizor use Night Slash on Victini, Bisharp use Focus Blast on Empoleon!' Gladiator shouted. Victini had charged up energy and it's attack was engulfing Scizor with flames, it was burned. Meanwhile Bisharp fired a energy charge at Empoleon but it missed as Empoleon's Hydro Pump gushed out at such a tremendous force hitting Bisharp and knocking it over.

By the end of the first turn Scizor was close to the end and Bisharp was nearer when Gladiator shouted 'Bisharp use Night Slash and Scizor use X-Scissor!' 'Victini use V-Create on Bisharp and Empoleon use Brick Break on Scizor!' Tammie shouted as Victini fired an enflamed burst at Bisharp and as it hit, it created a V shape from the flame before inflicting damage upon Bisharp. The damage was so immense that Bisharp fell on the floor and fainted. Meanwhile, Empoleon was using it's bladed wing to inflict a Break Break attack on Scizor, which Scizor just narrowly missed dodging it as Scizor fell to the floor, it had fainted.

Tammie was hugging Victini again and put it down and turned to Empoleon. 'Thanks for your help there, buddy. You and Victini are good together!' She said as she smiled 'I wonder if Nick wouldn't mind trading you to me...' Nick laughed 'I don't think so somehow Tammie, this guy has been with me all over the world from Sinnoh to when I met you in Unova... Empoleon has put up with me!'

Gladiator walked over to Tammie and screamed 'You defeated me little girl, but my friends soon crush you like insect!' Nick stared at him 'How about you bog off and get some English lessons...?' Gladiator gritted his teeth as he walked away and fell on the floor and disappeared in a flash of purple light. 'What was that?' Aly asked Tammie and Nick. 'That my dear, was a teleport which is how we travel here!' the Beyonder exclaimed. 'It's about time for you to continue your journey to the next town to set yourselves free!' 'Where would that be then? Nick asked. 'Glatorius Island. You have succeeded in defeating Tekni City's ruler, so go on to Glatorius, I will see you all again very soon!'

***

Robin turned to the Witch Doctor, 'You blithering idiot! You failed to kill someone with a simple object!' 'I am sorry mistress... forgive me, please?' Robin said, worrying. 'You have two more chances to defeat them before Glatorius Island, kill them all aside from Nick or I'll kill YOU!' Witch Doctor yelled as she disappeared in a purple flash.

***

'Hey guys... Tammie, oh my God! I saw your battle, you were a pro!' Robin shouted as he came down the audience staircase, the Colliseum was now completely empty.
'Thanks Robin, but Nick helped too, he saved me from the giant rock and then lended me Empoleon.' Tammie said looking at Nick. 'Just helping out a friend.' he said as the gang walked away onto their trek to Glatorius Island.
Robin thought to himself as he grinned evilly 'Yeah... a friend who you'll murder in the afterlife once I've killed you and that weird girl!'

Chapter X: Advance of Conquest:

The gang had left Tekni City on a wierd styled boat on a free ferrying charter system.
The boat would aparently take a day to get to Glatorius Island. So meaning in that time the gang'd have some rest.
Nick, Tammie and Alyssa had gone upstairs to see the view, whilst Robin was left to be with himself.
In that time the Witch Doctor appeared. 'I have found a way to defeat those two brainless females!' She exclaimed gleefully. 'What's that then?' Robin asked. 'You are going to sink this ship!' Witch Doctor explained 'After you have done so I will transport you to safety, where you will be rewarded! 'Where do I go?' Robin asked. 'The engine deck, you will put a lever to stop the boat and remove the engine key and take the spare by the emergency exit and throw them overboard, they will have no means of escape!' The Witch Doctor cackled. 'I understand mistress.' Robin said as she vanished Robin walked down 1 floor to the control room, he saw no staff working there which et thought was slightly odd. He took the two sets of keys and pulled the lever. Nothing had happened when after he had just thrown the two keys into the sea, when a siren sounded 'ALERT, ALERT, MALFUNCTION!' Aly looked around on the top deck. 'What the hell is going on?' 'Uh to me it seems we are gonna have to jump overboard...' Nick said. 'Thought I'd find you up here, the ship is sinking apparently.' Robin said. 'Look, lifeboats!' Tammie shouted. 'Lets go then.' Aly yelled. As the group worked together to untie the ropes and set the lifeboat free. The gang had all jumped over in order to get into the lifeboat, Tammie still wearing her dress from 2 days prior was instantly cold upon entry to the almost frozen Tekni-Glator sea. Soon all four had gotten into the lifeboat and witnessing the ferry sink, they were floating for hours upon hours just huddling together to keep warm as the boat drifted as they fell asleep.

End of Chapter 10

[The Kiwi Dragon]

Chapter XI: Black Ice:

The small lifeboat had been at sea for 12 hours, as it floated over cold seas and the group had soon grown tired of being cold.
Tammie noticed a small island in the distance.

Glatorius Island was ages away. Then Nick had an idea, they all grabbed onto Empoleon who swam all the way to Glatorius Island.

The group all yelled as Empoleon sped through the sea, smashing ice floes along the way. Soon the gang 20 minutes after they left the lifeboat were at Glatorius Port.
'Thanks for helping us Empoleon!' Tammie said as she hugged the big penguin Pokemon. Empoleon nodded in appreciation as Nick recalled him back into it's Pokeball.

The group walked to the city centre and went inside to see if any rooms were available in the Pokemon Center.
Oddly though there was no Nurse Joy, just a aqua coloured haired woman in the same outfit, with a Froslass sitting on the desk.*

'Hi, welcome to Glatorius Pokemon Center! My name is Nurse Crystal. You look like you could use some rest from being out in the cold. Would you like some rooms?'
'Yes thanks, Nurse Crystal!' Aly said.
She was always the polite one.

***

'So here we are, the two rooms!' Nurse Crystal said. 'Unfortunately there are only 3 beds. 2 singles and a double.'

Within an instant Robin and Aly shouted 'Definitely not sharing!'
Nick and Tammie looked at each other as Nick shrugged. 'I'm not bothered...' he said.

***

After dinner, the gang soon retired to their respective rooms.
Robin fell asleep soundly, he had a tiring day, and if he didn't succeed at killing the girls it could be one of his last days alive. He just had to succeed next time, because he wanted to survive to see Ruko again. He didn't like what he had to do. But he had to do it.

Meanwhile Aly was looking at a pamphlet about Pokemon Health and she already knew most of this stuff, but she knew another thing. The Pokemon Virus epidemic, was increasing daily. She had the skills to help and was happy knowing she was helping because she'd cured dozens of other Pokemon owned by civilians.*

She was known to them as 'Lady Healer' she had survived from home to home as repayment for healing Pokemon. She knew her responsibilities were here on this world, but she wanted to go home and see her family. At least she was happy to know her Pokemon couldn't be infected by it as they were from a different world.

All of this brought tears to her eyes as she laid down

***

Meanwhile in the next room over Nick and Tammie were in the same bed.
'This is kinda awkward.' Nick said.
'Not really.' said Tammie, 'I wanted us to be alone so I could say something to you.'
'What's would tha...?' Nick was cut off mid-sentence as Tammie kissed him on the lips.
'We've been mates for a long time, plus the times you've saved me... it's only fitting we should be together.' She said. 'I didn't think you'd want me as a boyfriend, I thought you and me were just best mates.' Nick said. 'And I didn't do all the work. Remember Gladiator?' 'You did save me from the rock and lent me Empoleon.' Tammie said calmly. 'I was good against Gladiator though wasn't I?' 'Oh yes, you were.' Nick said as he leant in and kissed Tammie.*

Their lips met as they continued kissing passionately as they fell back onto their bed, in total waves of love.

This was going to be a night to remember.

Behind the Scenes: Chapter 6 - Road to Nowhere: Part 2 (Robin and Ruko)

Time to show another twisted evil part of the story, death isn't fun!

[The Kiwi Dragon]

Chapter XII: Frozen Wastelands: Part 1 - Bringing the Power:

The gang had rested overnight at a Pokemon Center, the following day they had breakfast and were on their way.
'Where are we supposed to go?' Tammie said. 'No idea, last time it was obvious, as you wouldn't have a colosseum in a technological city.' Nick said.
'Guys, I've got it!' Aly shouted. 'Here look, why on Earth would you have a power plant so close to the city centre?' 'No idea, but you Alyssa are very observant!' Robin said. 'Let's go in and win!'
'Hold on... Who's going to battle?' Tammie said. 'I will!' Nick said. 'With all due respect, I request that I battle...?' Aly said. 'Um...' Nick said looking at Tammie as she winked at him. 'OK sure...'
'Can we go already?' Robin asked impatiently.

So, then the group walked into the power station when a man with blonde spiked hair with a business suit and another in the same suit with orange spiked hair walked up to them.

'You must be Nick and... erm... friends. My name is Electro, and this is my brother Flare. The Beyonder has signed me and my brother up to defeat you all. And I will only battle Nick and a team-mate.' he said.
'Fine, Aly are you up to battle?' Nick asked.
'Sure Nick!' Aly agreed.
'Here are the rules.' said Flare 'Double battle, 1 Pokemon each.'
'Deal. Go Hydreigon!' Nick shouted.
'Go Golurk' Aly shouted.
'Go Magmortar and go Electivire!' the brother's both shouted.
'Golurk use Shadow Sneak on Magmortar!' Aly Shouted.
'Hydreigon use Surf!' Nick shouted.
'Electivire use Protect.' Electro shouted.
Magmortar use SolarBeam on Golurk!' Flare shouted.

***

'Mistress, where are you taking me?' Robin asked
'To the control room, to destroy the Power Plant!' Witch Doctor told him.
'But it'll kill me!' Robin whined.
'Do it, or I will kill you myself!' Witch Doctor screamed.
'No I won't' Robin said defiantly.
'Fine then!' Witch Doctor screamed as she flew down his throat.
'Get out of me!' Robin screamed and soon laughed evilly with red glaring eyes.
Robin shot a laser beam out of his finger and destroyed the control room.

End of Chapter 12

[The Kiwi Dragon]

Chapter XIII: Frozen Wastelands: Part 2 - Parting of the Ways.

Electivire formed a protective barrier around itself, as Golurk snuck up blindingly fast and slammed into Magmortar.
Magmortar had suffered only some slight damage.
Meanwhile, Magmortar soon gathered in light and instantly blast it into Golurk thanks to it's Power Herb.
Hydreigon launched a surf which Golurk dodged and as it naturally missed Electivire but hitting Magmortar with such a force, that it soon fainted.
'Aaaaarrggh!' Flare screamed as Nick gave Aly a high five.
Tammie cheered from the side line as Victini performed a little cheerleading routine.
'Hydreigon use Rock Slide!' Nick shouted.
'Golurk use Mega Punch!' Aly shouted.
'Electivire use Brick Break on Hydreigon!' Electro shouted.
Electivire smacked Hydreigon with a hard karate chop style attack.
Hydreigon fell backwards and twitched weakly on it's back, but it flew up again weakly.
Golurk hit Electivire with a punch so hard, it could've killed a human being.
Electivire didn't falter until when it got hit by some falling rocks from Hydreigon where it fell back and hit it's head on the wall behind it.

Nick and Aly high fived as Tammie came over and hugged them both as Victini was still dancing away when suddenly an alarm sounded 'ALERT, ALERT, MALFUNCTION, POWER PLANT WILL SELF DESTRUCT, SEALING BLAST DOORS IMMEDIATELY!'
'So long suckers!' Flare shouted as he and his brother escaped through the blast doors as they shut.
'We're too late...' Aly said tears welling up in her eyes.
'Aww Aly don't say that we can get out... The control room!' Tammie said.
'What about it?' Nick asked.
'There should be a button there to escape. Let's go!' Tammie said.
They ran upstairs to the control room and saw Robin up there.

'I'm working on it to get the doors open!' Robin said. 'OK, go now it's open I have to lower the blast rate.'
Nick, Tammie and Aly ran for the door as soon as Tammie and Aly got out the doors closed.
Nick ran back to the Control Room.
'Robin, what the hell is the meaning of this?' Nick said as Robin turned around as Nick looked at him. Robin had glowing red eyes and sharp teeth.
'There is no Robin, just the Witch Doctor, fear me mortal!' Robin said.
'Whatever this thing is Robin, it probably killed Ruko. Do you even remember her?' Nick asked. 'Whatever this thing is you have to force it out of you!'

Suddenly Robin spoke, 'I can't it's too strong!' he said.
'I believe in you Robin! Think of you, me, the girls and Ruko. Get rid of this evil thing!'
Robin thought of all of this and yelled as Witch Doctor screamed as Robin expelled her from his body.*
Nick pulled a lever making a glass cage fall on Witch Doctor, as soon as it sealed Robin pushed the button next to it and instantly a cold beam froze Witch Doctor.

'She always was rather cold hearted.' Robin said. We'll have to lower the blast rate or we all go up. Down to 20% at least.
'OK. Come on then...!' Nick shouted.
'The blast rate isn't going lower than 35%... get out of here I have to keep trying!' Robin shouted.
'You'll die though?!' Nick said.
'I know, it's the price I alone, must pay to save you all...' Robin said sadly.*
Nick looked sadly at Robin who was willing to die, Nick could only grant him his wish.
'Thank you, old friend!' Nick shouted.
'RUN!! She'll blow in 30 seconds...!' Robin shouted.

Nick ran faster than he ever had in his life.
Robin grabbed the microphone on the control desk and spoke, 'I am Robin, gone but not forgotten...!' he never got to finish as the building started to collapse from the explosions... Nick ran out of the main door.
He saw the girls standing waiting.
'Where is Robin?' Tammie asked.
'Duck!' Nick said as he grabbed them and they fell on the floor as a gout of flame, emerged from the entrance.
Nick stood up along with the girls. 'Nick? Where is Robin?' Aly asked. Nick put his arms around their backs. 'I'm going to tell you a story...' he said as the group walked away.

Chapter XIV: On the Road Again:

The group had been staying in the Pokemon Center for a week.
A week almost since the explosion that killed one of their own.
Robin had a funeral like remembrance service with just Nick and the girls attending.*

They'd have trouble sleeping so they all moved into the one room.
Aly slept on the sofa, she claimed she didn't mind if Nick and Tammie wanted to continue sharing.

The day after Robin's memorial, the group received a notice of eviction from their room in the Pokemon Center.
Aly read it out loud, 'This is a notice of eviction, due to the fact you have overstayed the longest amount of time allowed.
If any belongings are not removed by midday, they will be removed and trashed. Thank you and have a pleasant journey... yeah right it's pleasant...'

So the group eventually packed their belongings and walked out of the Pokemon Center, not knowing where they would go next.
When a hologram of the Beyonder appeared.
'You my children, are going on the road again. Your first task is Gigantia Forest, a massive maze-like forest north of this town and on to defeat my next associate!' He said.
'What if we don't want to?!' Tammie asked. 'We have already had two of our friends killed!'
'Don't you want to leave my dear?' The Beyonder exclaimed.
'What if we wanted to settle down here? Rather than dying?' Aly asked.
'You want to give up?! Continue or die you stupid girl!' The Beyonder exclaimed as his hologram faded.

'I s'pose we are going on another road trip then, if you are both up to it?' Nick asked.
'Yeah to defeat The Beyonder and get home!' Aly said.
'To honour Robin and Ruko!' Tammie said.
'FOR VICTORY!!' The three shouted as they ran towards Gigantia Forest.

***

The Beyonder sat in his chair in his airship at a unknown location.
He looked around at his henchmen 3, a few of them had already lost to Nick and the group.
'Gladiator? Care to explain why you lost?' The Beyonder asked angrily.
'Gladiator not know... Gladiator defeated by pretty girl... Gladiator want to marry pretty girl!' Gladiator exclaimed in his usual stupid voice.

'Haha Gladiator got whipped by the blonde girl...!' Flare exclaimed.
'Shut it brother!' Electro hissed.
'Now we come to you two... the twins!'
The Beyonder exclaimed. 'Why did you lose?!
'Because Magmortar is weak...' Flare said nervously.
'DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT IS AN EXCUSE?!!' The Beyonder spat. 'I HAVE SEEN SCHOOL-CHILDREN EXHIBIT A MORE PROFESSIONAL PLAN!!'
'We're sorry Sir.' Electro muttered as he saw The Beyonder playing with his control box. 'Surely there is no need for that...' Electro said worriedly.

'Gladiator, Electro and Flare! Get out of my sight!' The Beyonder said as he pressed 3 buttons making the chairs of Gladiator and the twins spin and activate the spring mechanism in the chairs as the trio were thrown off onto the floor. Suddenly the floor opened like a door as all 3 fell out of the airship.

The doors closed, as The Beyonder spoke.
'So the hired hitmen were defeated but haven't been seen since, those 3 bumbling failures are gone, and Witch Doctor has frozen. There are only a small amount of us left.' he said twiddling his thumbs.
'No master! I have great news!' Said a small old man... it was the man who had welcomed Nick to this planet in the first place.

'Really Dr. Psycho?' What is that?' The Beyonder asked.
'Allow me to introduce my latest Security cyborg, he is half human and half machine. He will be the headhunter of our next plan!' Dr. Psycho told the group as he pushed a button on a remote in his hand.

Suddenly the robot came forward, still in the shadows though as the lights suddenly flickered off. Suddenly a red light came from it's left eye. It was alive!

End of Chapter 14.
Beginning of Series 2.

[The Kiwi Dragon]

Chapter XV: Night of the Hunter:

The trio had been walking through the forest all day and had decided to set up camp, after a day of confusion in this maze-like forest.
After an improvised dinner of berry salad made out of various berries they could find they settled down to sleep.
All they could talk about was preparing for the road ahead as they settled down to sleep.
Suddenly though mere hours after they had fallen asleep something terrifying awoke them from their sleep.

'Rise human scum.' it spoke. It had a horrifying look to it. It was about 95% metal. Only the right side of it's face looked real. It had a normal eye on the side of the face where skin appeared the other side was a red electronic eye. The whole of it's body was metal armour no clothing. It held a laser cannon in it's hand.

The group got up. 'One, two, THREE!' Nick shouted as the group ran away from the robot and Tammie shoulder barged the metal being so hard it collapsed onto the floor. 'Will it be OK?' Aly asked. 'I'd have thought so but it seems to have gone dead.' Nick said as the trio bent over and looked at the machine. 'Rusty old piece of cra-!' Aly was cut off mid sentence as the group fell backwards with a jolt as the robot jumped into the air.

'I have orders to kill you all, and I Delta Commando 4 never disobey orders of my superiors!' the metallic being shouted. 'Say goodbye, humans!'

Nick held the girl's tightly... 'Is this death?' he thought to himself as the robot took aim and primed the gun.

Was this the end?

End of Chapter 15.

[The Kiwi Dragon]

Chapter XVI: Shadows of the Night:

The 3 of us stared in horror at the gun at them. Before some kind of gleaming object flew past and cut the gun in half. It was some kind of sword!
The mechanoid tried to process this as a shadowy figure, performed elegant and powerful martial arts moves on it, before it collapsed the the ground. The figure walked up to them and retrieved their sword from the gun which had earlier been sliced in half. 'Thanks... Whoever you are...?' Nick said. 'I'm the Dark-Ninja... Protector of the innocent... and destroyer of tin cans like this...' The figure replied. All of them looked at the mechanoid, as a human voice spoke 'Who are you calling a tin can, Leigh?' 'Santiago? Is that you?' She asked, highly unsure of what she was hearing. 'Yeah... Lemme outta here!' He yelled.

Dark-Ninja looked at me and sighed. 'Good thing I know how to to this... Or we'd all go kaboom!' She said. Aly looked at her. 'How ya gonna do it Dark-Ninja?' The ninja grabbed her sword. 'By removing the inhibitor chip on the back of his neck, I can override any control over him, and free him from the armour.' And so she started work. And for hours they sat in fear of an explosion... but there wasn't one. By dawn they awoke to see the Ninja and her 'friend' freed from his robotic armour.

The 5 talked about their experiences, before Nick dropped the big question. 'Me and Santiago fight with you? We accept!' Dark-Ninja squealed as the young man who introduced himself as Santiago nodded. They revealed to us, that they too were born from Earth, with both skilled in Pokemon and war. So after some introductions, we all moved on towards the next town before we were stopped by a hologram of the 'Big guy' himself. 'You were assigned 3 team-mates, not 4. And because of this deception, I will eliminate one team-mate from your team.' He said, as I looked around to see Tammie disappear. Once again... I lost a friend out of a scheme...

But I shed no tears or showed any emotion... Because, like Delta Commando 4... The Beyonder had stripped me of my emotions at the beginning of it all...
