'Well I got attacked by a Tempest Admin. She called herself Evnanine.' Zak explained. He hopped on Noivern and he walked her over to Azumi. 'Hey Azumi, you aaahh... Wanna ride?' Zak was only a young man, so he had not bothered with love... Yet. He only just realized how... Beautiful she was. He... Liked her.

Ray felt terrible when Azumi walked past him with that mistrustful quip. He understood her frustration: it's not like he was trying to keep secrets - but Totodile's history was not his to disclose. Even though Ray was no longer involved with Team Rocket, the rule never to rat out another member was still firmly embedded in him...
When Ray arrived back at the cafe, Micheal was nowhere to be seen.
"M-Micheal? You in here?" he called out. Was he on the roof again? Ray became weary; it wouldn't be unlike the boy to hide somewhere and sneak-attack him with another rock to the leg or something. He started to flip up table clothes and check under tables, but he wasn't finding anything...

Azumi gave a mean look to Zak, she was still upset about what Ray had said. "I can walk thank you. Besides I can't ditch Jodi." Azumi kept walking until she reached the cafe. She saw Ray looking for something. "Oh are you looking for your honesty?" She said in a sarcastic way. She walked over behind the bar and began making more tea.
"Anybody want some?"
"Anybody want some?"

When Michael saw Zak offering Azumi a ride,he grined"Yay!New ship!Ship names...Azak...or....Zazumi.Azak sounds better!"But when Azumi turned him down,he frowned"Awwwww...My ship!I guess I'll just watch someone else!How about Oti-....Oh yeah,she's....gone..."Tears started to slide across his cheecks"Ugh...why did she have to leave....*sniff*me...." "Blaze,Blaziken..."Blaziken said worried"What?!I don't like her!That's not true at all!I don't know what your talking about."Michael said with a Scolipede red blush."Ugh..maybe I do...But don't tell that to Spirit,or she'll tell her..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ummm...Azumi...Ray is looking for something actually important..."Jodi managed to say."Michael's....well....gone..."Jodi was scared that Michael was captured by Tempest and bagan looking for him.She thought that they would leave a Bounty Poster or a clue of some sorts.

Azumi looked down at the tea she was preparing. "Why do I feel that no matter what we do we always end up separated." She gave Jodi a cup of tea and sat down next to her, "We should rest here tonight. I'm sure Zak and Ray can find him and in case he comes back we will be here." She looked out the window and sighed. She leaned her head back and doozed off.
Michael began to walk back and fronth."Ugh....I'M SOOOO BORED!!!!!!!!THINK HOW MANY CONTESTS I'VE MISSED!AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!"Michael began to scream really loud."Blaziken!"Blaziken said irritated"Okay,Okay,I'm gonna chill.But maybe I could quickly go to my ranch and grab some things.I really need to evolve Sneasel!Michael had a sad expression on his face."Ugh,I really miss it.It's not fair!We went to Azumi's home and I want to go to my house instead of staying in some filthy cafe!"
"Look, this is all I have,'kay?" Ray responded to Azumi frustratedly, getting up from under a tablecloth. "I'm not deceiving anyone here, there'd be no point... I don't have a home, I don't have friends; hell, if we make it out of this alive, I don't even have the slightest idea of what to do with myself going forward! and yet you think I'm harbouring some sort of secret plan? Gimme a break! So what if there are a few things I don't wanna tell you? You, of anyone, should know by now that I'm more than willing to die for all this!"
Ray heard Micheal shouting something about boredom outside.
"G-good - sounds like he's coming back..." Ray attempted to calm himself down; he'd kinda blown up a little...
"I'm going to check out the lab. Enjoy your tea."
He stormed off and left via the elevator before anyone could say anything.

"Oh.....I guess they don't care..."Michael said disappointed."Ugh...How about I throw this Pokemon into a river,huh?...Nah...Ray's the monster,not it..."sighs*I guess....I should shout something really,really mean.RAY IS A DUMB MORON WHO WOULDN'T RECOGNIZE A WATER GUN EVEN IF HE WOULD GET HIT BY IT!!!"Michael yelled really loud so Ray could hear him."HE ALSO IS A COWARDLY JERK WHO'S JUST AS SMART AS A SLOWBRO!!!" "Blaze..."Blaziken sighed.

'Alright Noivern, to the cafe!' He shouted. They were off. When they arrived at the cafe Zak went down in the elevator to see the if he could organize the dorms for sleeping. Once he was done, he hollered up the elevator shaft, 'Guys! The sleeping quarters are ready! Just remember! Male on the left, females on the right. We don't want any mix ups!' Now Zak just had to wait to see if they liked them.
Azumi was to tired to say anything to Ray. She looked over at Zak, "Thank you Zak. I'll make my way to down in a little bit." She walked outside and took out Golurk. "Hey big guy, could you fly me up to prism tower? Just be careful we aren't seen."
Golurk placed his trainer on his shoulder and flew her over to prism tower. She got off near Michael and spoke to him. "Hey Michael listen. I know you're upset and things have been going bad. It's mess. But, by doing this, we are putting everyone in danger. So please, come back with us. We can rest and try again tomorrow."

Ray delved deeper into the labyrinth-like tunnels of the abandoned Lysander Labs. As he progressed he noticed his surroundings becoming more and more decrepit: the lights were flickering on and off, and the floors were littered with debris... There were some strange circular panels on the floor, some of which were cracked and lightless, while others remained intact and glowed dimly.
"What on earth are these?" Ray wondered to himself and ventured to step on one of the panels...
"H-huh!? What the-" Before Ray knew it his senses were overcome by a pale light and he was teleported elsewhere in the laboratory - somewhere he hadn't been yet...
"W-whoa..." Ray exhaled in disbelief. "This place is more expansive than I thought... Well, I guess I'll keep exploring..." This new series of hallways was even darker and dingier than the last one, and so Ray sent out Typhlosion to accompany him. The place had a pretty ominous vibe, and he was a little spooked...

"No,no,no!" Michael yelled at Azumi"I'm not that mad at him to blow our cover, I just wanted him to be here, it's really important! But of course you had to check! Ugh!!! You know what, I'm not going anywhere! I'd rather die out here than being treated like I'm a dumb diva! And if you don't leave in 5 minutes, I'll push you off!" Michael stormed off to the other side of the Prism Tower. "Blaze..." Blaziken tried to apologize to Azumi, before she followed Michael.Then he yelled"If you don't want to see me jump off,then you're gonna get him!"

'Oh hey Ray! I see you and Typhlosion found the dormitories of Lysandre Labs!' I'll let you keep exploring while I sleep a bit. It's been a long day. Zak found a comfy bed to call his own and unpacked the duffel bag that he always brought with him. A photo of his father and Sydney, the Cubchoo that lived with his dad and couple of Pokeballs into the drawers. Zak fell asleep and decided, that when he woke up, whenever that be, he would fix up a lab for himself.
Azumi sighed in disappointment, "Ok, just be careful." She patted blaze on the head and then had Golurk fly her back to the cafe. Upon arrival she only saw Jodi sitting where she left her. "I guess he is still in there." She went down to the dormitories and saw that only one had it's door closed. She walked up to the door and gently knocked, "Hello? Ray? Zak? Anybody in there?"
"Don't forget to get Ray to come here!"Michael called after her."Now,time to pay a visit to ma ranch!"Michael hopped on Blaziken's shoulders and they jumped all the way to their home."Good,everybody's sleeping.Now to-"He was cut off by 2 Pokemon that jumped from a tree and were about to use Iron Tail on him"Guys!It's me!"The 2 Pokemon stopped at the sight of their friend.It was a Watchog and a Sentret,that were bigger and more powerful than regular ones.They were the ranch's guards"Watchog!" "Sentret!" "Shhh!I'm only gonna be here for the rest of the night!Wish me luck!"He went tip toe to his house.He entered,only to see his brother,Alejandro, waking up for some water."Michael!"He whispered."What are you doing here?Did you defeat that organization?" "No!I'm only here to sleep!"Then,a Lycanrock Midday Form just jumped out of nowhere and started to lick Michael."Spar!You evolved!"From upstairs could be heard footsteps.Michael's parents rushed into the room."What happened?" "We heard yelling!"Turn,when they saw Michael they rushed towards him and gave him a hug."My boy,you're back!" "We missed you soooo much!" "Yeah,you're gonna still do that."Michael explained them that he has to go in the morning,and he only came to sleep and to handle something about Pokemon.Then,when everyone went back to sleep,Michael went into his room and got:2 Pokemon to help him,and a Razor Claw that he got when he was 8.Then,he went to bed and fell asleep.And Jodi just went down to her dorm and fell asleep.

Oliver sighed and looked around, suddenly seeing his Pokeball, and picking it up. “Alright! Go, Sparky!” He yelled, sending out the Pichu. “ Sparky, go find someone who can help!” Ollie commanded, and Sparky ran off.
Ray was holed up in his room studying some blueprints that he'd found deeper in the lab. His pokemon lounged about the room outside of their pokeballs, fiddling with broken bits of machinery on the floor and napping intermittently. Ray didn't know exactly what he was looking at, but it appeared to be schematics for some sort of weapon in Geosenge town, and also for a subterranean base... Team Flare's uprising had happened well before Ray had arrived in Kalos, and so all this was very new and intriguing to him...
Suddenly, he heard knocking outside. He opened his door and peered out.
"Oh, Azumi... What is it? If you're looking for Zak I think he's asleep..."

"Oh, Azumi... What is it? If you're looking for Zak I think he's asleep..."
Sparky ran down to a lab like area, looking around. He was trying to find someone who could help get Oliver free. “Chu....Picha...” (this place is creepy...) Sparky said.
"I was actually looking for you." She yawned, "Excuse me. It's been a long day. Michael is on top of prism tower. He won't come back until he talks to you and I'm afraid tempest will notice him soon." Azumi sighed and looked away. "I also apologize for being rude to you. It was unfair of me."
"Ugh, he's an obstinate lil' bugger..." Ray sighed and stood up from the bed. "I'll go see what he wants, then..." He returned his pokemon (with the exception of Typhlosion) and started to gather his things.
"Well, it's not like your comments were unwarranted..." he responded to Azumi's apology. "I probably wouldn't trust me if I met myself either, so whatever semblance of trust it is that you do have in me... whatever it is that holds you back from just kicking me out of here... thanks for that, I guess. It's probably more than I've earned..." He bowed his head a little as he apologized. The atmosphere was kinda heavy, and so he tried to lighten to mood as he left.
"O-on another note, you should really explore this place if you get the chance! It's huge! Also, I found all kinds of blueprints for doomsday weapons and stuff..." he gestured to the papers on his bed. "These Team Flare people were whack! Anyways..." he departed with a hasty wave and set off for Prism Tower.
~~~ Meanwhile at Tempest HQ~~~
At Tempest's HQ they were still trying to recover from Ray and Azumi's destructive rampage... The holes in the walls had been hastily patched with construction tarp and the affected areas were in the process of being fenced off. One of the grunts was hard at work when he noticed a Pichu scampering down the hall...
"Hey, who goes there!" he shouted after the little pokemon, and set off to pursue it. As he ran, it it may have been audible to Pichu that a set of keys jingled at his waist...

Sparky heard the keys, shooting off with a quick attack. "Cha!Cha!Pachi-U!" ( Great! Somebody found me! I gotta run!) Sparky said, pulling the cover off a air vent, and pulling it back on.

(Sorry for not replying, yet again my notifications didn't do their jobs)
Otis was behind where the battle with that Tempest man had taken place. She was in a tunnel that was dug by Clara, and her Pokemon including herself had taken refuge there. "Hm, its been awhile since I saw Michael or Jodi..." She sighed, and Joey sat on her lap in which he decided to rest. Spirit, Clara, and Nia were all sitting next to Otis, resting as well. "Next morning, we will go on a search for them..."

"Next morning, we will go on a search for them..."
Michael couldn't sleep at all.He was worried that something bad was happening to Otis.He got out of bed,put some clothes on and said to his Pokemon"Zeb,Digger,Py,you're gonna have to stay here.To guard the ranch,okay?" Digger!" "Zeb!" "Py!" "Awwww,y'all are the best!As for you Sneas,I've got this for you!"He said while holding the Razor Claw."Sneas!Sneasel!"Michael grined and handed Sneasel the Razor Claw.She started to glow.She got bigger,with a lot more feathers,and when the sparkles finally wore off,they reaveld Weavile."Weavile!" "OMG!That's so cool!Now,Grov,Spar,you're coming with us!K?" "Grovyle!" "Lycanrock!"They quietly went out the door,and left a note to their familly,saying that they'll leave,and that they love them.Then,Michael got up on Blaziken's shoulders,and went back on the Prism Tower."Good,Ray's coming.Finally."
Ray arrived at the base of the tower and beckoned for Micheal to come down. Given the condition of his leg, he didn't feel like trying to climb up...
"Alright, Micheal, I'm here - what do you want?" he said in a somewhat impatient tone. He was worried that someone was going to see them...
~~~
The grunt continued to chase the Pichu, running to the exits of the air vents to ensure that he didn't loose track of the pokemon. He wasn't sure where it was leading him...

"You have to come up here!I don't care that your leg hurts!"Michael yelled at him"Or you don't wanna get back your Pokemon that Tempest stole from you?
"Michael got out the Ray's PokeBall."That's right!I found this when I was at the Tempest HQ!And if you don't wanna hurry up to climb,then I'll throw it in a river!Or I'll just keep it and never ever give it to you!Come on,I'M LOSING PATIENCE!"

Otis lay, still awake despite being exhausted. All her Pokemon were asleep, so she got up and walked out of the tunnel. Otis then heard yelling in the distance, though it ws very faint. She sighed, and sat down. Otis looled at the sky, smiling a bit. "So peaceful... and I want it to stay like that"
Sparky stayed in the vent, praying someone would arrive to help. "Cha...Chu...Chi....." ( I hope someone comes soon....I need help to save Ollie.....) Sparky said, climbing higher in the vent.
Azumi woke up coughing. The pain and the coughs had returned. She sat up as she gasped for air. She covered her ribs with her arms as she continued to cough violently. This continued for a few minutes until it finally stopped. She looked down at her jeans which had a few blood drops stained on them. She wiped her mouth with her sleeve and layed back down in fatal position. She was afraid of going back to sleep.
Jodi woke up when she heard coughing.She quietly went towards Azumi's room and opened the door."Azumi,are you okay?..."She managed to say while rubbing her eyes."You should probably go to a Pokemon Center...You can't risk*yawn*getting paralysed...Maybe Zak has some medicine..."She went back to her room while yawning one last time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Michael became irritated."Come on!For every 5 minutes that I have to wait,one finger gets up."He yelled holding the PokeBall over the ledge.If Ray wouldn't climb up,Michael would release the PokeBall to fall and break on the ground.

Now it was bit a louder. Otis yet again heard yelling, but it sounded familiar. "Hmm... that sounded like..." Then it clicked. She got up and quickly ran over to the tunnel. Otis then shook all her Pokemon awake. "I heard Michael. If he is near, then the rest of the group might be!" Spirit instantly got up, she couldn't wait to see the rest of the group. But Joey, Clara, and Nia still looked at Otis with tired eyes. She sighed, and returned all of them to their Pokeballs with the exception of Spirit. Otis then ran out of the tunnel with Spirit. "I'll find you all... it would be good to see them again..."
"W-WAIT, WHAT!?" Ray exclaimed. "YOU FOUND MISDREAVUS!?" He saw Micheal begin to loosen his grip on the pokeball... "HEY HEY HEY! STOP THAT YOU PYSCHOPATH! I'LL COME UP, JEEZ..."
Ray got on top of Typhlosion's back and the pokemon leaped precariously up the tower. "Ugh, I can't believe you're making me do this..." Ray groaned to himself as he ascended...
"Okay, now hand it over!" he said aggressively upon reaching the top, and stuck out his hand.
~~~
The grunt was down in the prison searching for the escaped Pichu. He saw a young boy awake in his cell and shouted at him:
"Hey, you! You seen a little yellow rat run through here?"

"Yeah,no."Michael responded to Ray's request"Why do you think I got you to climb all the way up here?If I wouldn't had something in mind,I would've just given it to you from the start.But since that's not the case,I want answers.Tell me 3 good reasons of why you left,and 1 good reason of why should I give it to you.I mean....why would I?You left us to die 'cause you were scared.And plus,calling me psychopath doesn't really help.So come on,speak up!Or the PokeBall gets it!"
"Azumi saw Jodi leave the room. She figured she had a point, though a Pokemon center was not a choice, Zak did mention something about medical equipment.
Azumi forced herself to her feet and slowly walked over to Zak's room. She knocked gently on his door. "Hello Zak? I'm sorry to wake you, but I need your help."

Her footsteps were loud, Otis and Spirit were listening for the same voice so they could find the group. Then a tower came into view. Otis stopped, panting heavily and the same applied to Spirit. They had been running for awhile. She looked up, and saw two figures on top of the tower. "It's Michael and Ray... I think." Otis spoke quietly, she wondered why they were up there. She put Spirit back in her Pokeball, and started to climb the tower.
Soon, she reached the top. Her hands stung from climbing so much, but Otis ignored it. She then hid behind a rock, listening in on Michael and Ray's conversation.

"Ugh......you know what?Screw it."Michael said as he threw the PokeBall over to Ray."It doesn't matter why you did it.You're a douchebag no matter what."Michael got up on Blaziken's shoulders and they jumped towards the cafe. At the entrance,Michael called Blaziken back,went inside,drank some tea,and then sat at a table.He started get bored so he got out Weavile and pat it's feathers.

Otis watched Michael and his Blaziken jump away. She then walked from behind the rock, looking around as she did so. Otis glanced at Ray, worry was shown on her face. "What's his problem?"
"Hey,girl.We should probably go to bed.It's been quite a day.Who knows what tomorrow has in store for us.We might go somewhere else,or have a battle,or look around for Otis..."Weavile grinned and said"Weavile!~"Michael looked at her embarrassed with a Scolipede red blush"What!?No I don't!Why does everybody think that?!Ugh....let's go to our room."When Michael closed his door,he called out all of his Pokemon,and they started to play Truth Or Dare,since Michael understood his Pokemon.
'When Zak woke up (Sorry it took so long. I was away all weekend), he got up, headed for the door and opened it. 'Oh hey Azumi!' He said drowsily. 'What's up,' Then he saw the small blood stains on her clothes. 'My lanta! Are you ok?' Zak had no idea that Azumi had been coughing blood previously! 'Don't worry! I was going over to set up my lab. But I guess it could help to see if I have any pills for you.' He ran her over to the laboratory he was going to set up and sat Azumi down on a examining bench. He got out his medical kit, and put on some gloves. 'Now, how long has this been happening?'
Azumi shivered when she saw Zak getting the gloves on, she wasn't a fan of going to the doctor. She answered while avoiding eye contact "Since yesterday, I hurt my ribs. I got treatment for it, but an arbok recently squeezed me and the blood began after that."
She looked around, trying to find something to distract herself with.
