Private/Closed Hoenn League tournament

Zack woke up, dizzy and his ears were ringing. He looked around, to find he wasn't outside anymore. He was strapped to a stretcher type of thing, propped up right so it seemed like he was standing. No matter how much Zack pulled and struggled, the straps wouldn't budge. He was in some sort of weird laboratory. The walls were a dark granite grey. There were pipes and giant computer screens along the walls and ceiling as well as some numbers along some of the gadgetries implemented in the walls. There were several TV monitors hanging from the top of the wall, letting off a blue aura of brightness to light the room. Next to him were to giant blue tubes, filled with strange liquid. He focused his attention to a monitor on the wall. It was showing what seemed like Zack's bio, vitals, x-ray, and... And a progress bar? It was labeled DNA fusion process, 68% complete. That unsettled him. On a bigger monitor there was a bunch of numbers and statistics Zack couldn't understand. All he wanted was to get out. His pokeballs were gone, he still didn't have his sunglasses, and his head hurt from the punch.
"Alright, I want out of here," Zack said to the empty room as he looked around. He then had an idea. Whoever had captured him did a sloppy job, because his red gem keychain was still on him. He unhooked it from his pocket, and opened up a secret pocket knife. Then he began working away at his leather confindments.

After a long cutting process, Zack finally got his arms and legs free. He stepped of the stretcher, and unhooked the tubes going into his arms. He felt really weird. It must have been from whatever was being pumped into him, and whatever it was, he was scared to find out what it did to him. Regardless, Zack put away his ruby keychain and walked out of the room and into a hallway labeled Area 4.
"Where the hell am I? And where is my pokemon?" Zack asked himself as he walked down the hallway. The floorboards had small holes in them, and beneath were wires and a couple lights. He suddenly heard noise coming from down around the corner, and it was closing in fast. Zack needed a place to hide... In an empty hallway. Oh shit.
 
The investigation of the ruins of Team Gaia's underground base was now beginning as search teams had started to investigate the area. One search team, about a group of three, went to search an area that Zack and Riley hadn't been too. When the divers managed to get through the barrier blocking the entrance, they saw that the room was completely dark. Up until this point, the rooms they had searched had decent lighting, but this room was just really dark. One of the divers stayed outside the room while the other two went in. When they first went in, they stayed near the door as they began their search, but there was nothing beside the walls. Then one of the divers decided to go further into the room. At first it got darker the further the diver went towards the middle of the room, but once he was in the center, he saw what was causing the darkness. Chills went down the diver's spine as he saw a demonic mask floating, letting out the darkness that has engulfed the room. Then that's when he heard the voice. "Do you feel it? Do you feel... fear?" The ghostly voice asked. For a moment, everything was silent as the diver was frozen in place. Then the mask let out a horrific screech before the diver felt himself being consumed. The other two divers heard the screech and moved in and that's when the exit disappeared. There was no exit, there was only the entrance.

"I have returned." In a laboratory somewhere unknown, a scientist woke up after hearing a mysterious voice. "Wh-who's there?!" The freaked out scientist as he hopped out of his seat. He had fallen asleep on the piles of papers on his desk in his dark office. His employer was a mysterious person to say the least. As he walked to the door, he could hear footsteps and the sound of a boy walking. Then he heard a screech. It sounded like something was coming, fast! However, his room door was locked, only open from the outside. After all, he was not working in a simple laboratory.

Riley sat on a bench overlooking the ocean. The evacuation process had already started and Riley watched as the ships started to leave the island. However, Riley had no plans to be a part of the evacuation process. Instead, he pulled out his phone and read the text message that was just sent to him. Then he looked back up at the evening sky overlooking the dark ocean. It was calming the rage filled inside of him. It was calming, but it was also revealing. Riley looked back at his phone and texted back, "You were right."
 
McNiel looked at Nion. " It's only been about ten minutes. more people are volunteering." He said. " Speaking of which would you like to be in the submarines infiltrating their base or underwater making sure nothing comes after us." He asked. He felt a little shiver. " I let you think about that for a little bit. right now I have to do something."

He turned as he walked to his personal tent to get ready for the attack. He closed the tent as he took out his brief case and opened it to reveal a plane white mask. He picked it up and looked into it's eyes. ' The final one has emerged.' The mask said. ' Soon our plan will commence.' McNeil nodded. Everything he has been working for, for the past forty years will all be happening soon.

Bail edles was looking threw the papers Heart left before his early retirement. The man had some serious issues. " Captain Edles." A voice said. Bail looked and saw the hooded figure
" Commander Cortez." He said as he bowed.
" It appears Heart's actions have notified the police." He said. " They're preparing to storm your base." He said. " You must not allow them to learn about the Red Scarves." He said. " At any cost." He said.
Edles nodded his head. " Understood sir." He said.
" Good." Cortez said before disappearing.
 
The two scientists turned the corner and continued to walk down the hall. When the coast was clear, Zack dropped from the ceiling.
“My arms are going to be so soar tomorrow...” he complained, walking the way the scientists came from. He approached a room, similar in look to his, except with a locked door. He peered in the room, to see a man dressed like a scientist. He figured the guy worked in the place. He stuck a middle finger at the dude and kept walking. Suddenly, he heard a loud roar that shook the floor. Torch. Zack immediately knew, starting to sprint down the hall. He came upon a giant room with Torch in a giant cage. The Pokémon also had tubes now connected to him, and he was being shocked by more scientists. Zack clenched his fists with rage. He couldn’t even speak, he just yell. He charged into the room and jumped into the air, kicking one of the scientists in the skull. He then turned to the other one, who was in shock. Zack ran around the cage to him. The scientist tried to throw a weak punch at Zack, but he caught it. Zack then spun the arm around, and used his other shoulder to slam on it, making it break. Before the scientist could even scream Zack punched him unconscious. He finally began cooling down, and breathing heavily.
“Alright Torch, I’m getting you out of there before anything else happens!” Zack shouted with anger still in his veins. Torch simply huffed out smoke, to weak to do anything else.
 
McNiel put on the mask as he pressed a button and sat down. The tent turned into a big round table with seventeen ten foot chairs positioned around it. He looked at the masks that were currently present. Like most of the room the people all looked blue do to the holographic mechanism.

" We're about to take on Gaia." He said. He turned his head to the left and looked at one of the masks. It was brown and had horns like a bull. " Cade how long until you get here?" He asked.

" we're ten minutes out." Gabriel Cade the Fighting mask's host said.
" Good when you and your men arrive we'll start the attack." McNiel said. " The members of team Gaia will be killed on sight." He said he breathed before continuing. " As you all felt it's safe to presume that ghost has finally found himself a new host. We need to track him down and bring him into the fold before we start phase 2."
 
The scientist just grinned as Zack stuck the middle finger up at him. The facility wasn't really guarded in the first place, so the scientist to see the boy running around. All of a sudden, his phone vibrated in his pocket, signaling a notification. The scientist took one good at it before smirking to himself. "It's time to go." The scientist muttered before sending out a Hariyama. They shared at a look at each other before the Hariyama forwards and knocked down the door.

When the scientist finally made it, he saw the end of the small skirmish Zack had with the other scientists and grinned. "Worthy indeed."
The scientist muttered under his breath before returning his Hariyama to show he was no threat to Zack. "Please let me help you Mr. Hunter." The scientist offered the boy.
 
As Zack was unplugging the tubes, he noticed as the scientist from earlier approached him.
"Alright, I'm going to give you 10 seconds to explain to me a valid reason why the hell you think I'd accept your help, before you walk away with at least three broken ribs," Zack said, as he disconnected another of the tubes.
 
The scientist grinned at Zack as he listened to the question. "Well, in order to answer your question, you must first know about what they did to your Pokemon. You see, those scientists were drugging your Charizard to keep it from ruining the procedure. Those drugs aren't just any drug, they are extremely dangerous and can be lethal if the Pokemon was overdosed, which would seem like your Charizard was." The scientist said as he observed Torch. He could see the symptoms already. "We have to get it some cleansing pills, which should cancel out some of the lethal drugs in its body. If we don't, then your Charizard may die. So if you kill me now, you won't be able to get your hands on a cleansing pill." The scientist told Zack as he studied the boy's reactions.
 
"Pfft. Please. Like I was going to kill you. I wouldn't give you the sweet embrace of death even if your sick mind wanted it. Regardless, I'm guessing you know where these cleansing pills are? And you also know what else was injected into my pokemon, and me? And the only way to get this information from you is to do something you want? I've been through this before. Now what do you want in return?" Zack asked, getting impatient and annoyed with the mans calm attitude. All Zack wanted was to heal his charizard, get out of the damn facility, and cure whatever the hell he got injected into him. Hopefully, with the help of this guy, it would speed up that process.
 
Drew got into his fixed scuba suite as a new helicopter landed. He looked over at James and saw pure hatred in Talonflames eyes. He wanted to ask what that was about but decided to walk towards Nion. " Hey Nion it's good to see that your still alive." He said as he smiled at the man.
( Sixteen years ago)
" I'm not going to lie." Corpral James Bucannan said as he looked at a picture. " There's no way that kid is yours." He said as he looked at a picture that Chris Leuric was holding. " He looks to good to be yours."

" Shut the fuck up." Chris said in a joking manner. He had light blonde hair with hazel eyes. He wore a green jacket.

" So what is his name." James said.
" We named him after our grandfarthers." Chris said. " Xavier Andrew Leuric." He said with a hint of pride in his voice. He looked and saw Polio looking at the picture. " Your going to help protect him right." He said to Polio. Polio gave Chris a look of pain as it crossed it's arms and turned it's head in a mocking sadness look. "Sorry I asked." Chris said he let out a breath. " of course this picture is a couple of years old. This war is taking too long." He said.
" Well just know that when this is over Uncle Buck will be there for the little man." James said as he looked at the picture again He was about to say something when their captain walked towards them. To the captains right was a man. He had slightly darkened skin with black hair. Both men saluted him. " Sir." They said in unisons.
" At ease." Captain Nick Rogers said. " Our squad's been given a mission. We're marching on goldenrod. We'll be accompanied by a mercenary group lead by this man. Gabriel Cade."
The man nodded as he looked at the soldiers. " Are main goal will be getting rid of a terrorist organization called the Red Scarf foundation."
(Six months ago)

Cortez coughed up blood. He stood up. He felt his side was wet with blood. He let out some tears as everything he worked for was taken from him for a second time. He looked around to see if there was any survivors. The base was being burned as his men that were still alive were on the ground bleeding out. He looked and saw that the a man walk towards him. The man had a black face mask on but there was no doubt about who the man was. It was someone he thought died many years ago. " The masqueraders send their regards." The man whispered into Cortez's ears before stabbing him threw the heart with a knife. Cortez fell to the floor as blood flowed from him. The last thing cortez could feel was a warm feeling.

The next thing Cortez realized was his eyes opening. " Calvin." He said as he looked at his right hand.
"It's alright sir." Calvin said " Your safe. You need to recover." He said.
Cortez nodded. He had to change how his group was working. Team Neo rocket was dead in their Ashes the new Red Scarf foundation will rise.
 
The scientist took a moment to process what Zack was saying. "What I want is none of your concern. But let me ask you this. Would you truly want the cleansing pills if you found out what has happened m to you and your partner?" The scientist asked as he slowly started to walk in circles around Zack. "Your mother. Your father. The fire. What do you think... How should I put this?" The scientist paused for a moment as he tried to figure out how to word the question. "What do you think were your parents' last thoughts as they burned in the fire you started?" The scientist started to question Zack. "Trust me when I say that you are worthy of the power you have recieved." The scientist stopped speaking. There was more to say but he wanted to see how Zack would first respond to his question.

"Hmph. Nice try," Zack said, quickly grabbing the scientist by the neck.
"Your trying to manipulate me. I won't fall for it. I accepted my parents deaths a long time ago. I learned that I'd never get further in life if I stayed in one place. If I didn't accept they were gone and they wouldn't come back. No matter how much I cried, it wouldn't do anything. Because life, isn't, fair," Zack said, squeezing on his neck tighter. He knew the scientist was fishy, and that little stunt just proved it. Zack then kneed the man in the stomach, and dropped him on the floor.
"Now tell me what I want to know," Zack said, kicking the man in the face while on the ground.

Tes half shrugged. "I'm on the team. They don't need much more than me." She said jokingly. "Not really, but this is not just a frontal assault. And how strong must they be?"
 
The scientist grinned as he wiped the blood off his face after Zack kicked him. He sat up and looked at Zack. "Fine, I'll show you." The scientist said before walking over to a computer. "Here it is." The scientist then pointed to the screen which showed the internal structure of Zack's body. "Your body had to undergo a procedure in order for it to be able to handle the power of..." The scientist stopped himself before revealing too much information. "Well first off, only a select few have managed to survive this procedure. It shows that you're worthy to wield it. Now we just need to bring that side out of you." The scientist tried to think of how he should do this part. "Well, you say life isn't fair. That is right, but, is fairness the right word to describe your parents' death? Tell me, what caused this fire to start? What really happened?" The scientist asked as the area around them started to get darker. A shadowy aura started to grow around them, which started to give both of them visions of the dark moments of their past. The scientist tried his best to keep it cool as he saw his own dark memories. He mainly focused on Zack, to see how he was holding up. "Look into their cold eyes and feel the pain and suffering they felt. I want you to watch as their bodies slowly burn away into the ashes that disappear into the shadows. I want you to feel the hate you had for yourself. If you want it to stop, you need to channel your rage and focus it. Then you will be able to unlock your potential." The scientist told Zack, continuing to watch him.
 
Zack watched as the man explained the procedure to him. He stood there cross armed and silent. He lifted an eyebrow when the scientist cut off before revealing what "power" he was talking about. Though, questioning it further was useless, he'd just get a witty remark than an answer. He winced a bit when the scientist mentioned him being "worthy to wield it,". He didn't know this secret organization believed in some weird magic spirit crap. Zack then had to hold back the urge to punch the guy in the face when he started with the talk of his parents again, but understood this time it was, necessary. Then things got weird.
"What the-" Zack said as darkness suddenly consumed the room. Zack listened as the man explained what he needed to do. Zack gritted his teeth, and let out a sigh.
"Fine, lets get this over with," Zack said, finally allowing the bad memories and anger, and fear take over him. He stared with a blank face into the eyes of his parents as he watched them slowly break apart into dust.
"Now what," Zack stated more than asked.
 
"You truly are an interesting subject." The scientist commended Zack. He was a bit suprised he didn't get any emotion from Zack. "Maybe you have come to terms with your parents death. But have they? Anyways, let us stop there about your parents. That clearly won't work." The scientist said before sending out his Hariyama between Zack and Torch. The scientist then walked over to Torch and started to place the tubes back onto Torch. "Now I must get back to work. Hariyama, hold the kid off for a bit while I finish my job." The scientist ordered after connecting the last of the tubes on Torch. Then the tubes started to shock Torch even more. "Make any sudden moves and I'll raise the voltage." The scientist threatened Zack before speaking into the intercom next to the computer. "The subject has escaped. Please send back up now." The scientist then turned to Zack with a sly grin on his face. "What will you do now boy?"
 
Zack watched as the scientist turned on him. He knew that it would happen sooner or later, and was prepared for when it did.
“Now Torch!” Zack yelled, and the dragon quickly kicked a belt across the floor to Zack. He quickly put it on, and picked one off.
“Go Thorn! Leaf Blade!” Zack said in swift movements. The sceptile sprouted out of the poke ball and let out a grunt before charging the Hariyama and slashing away at his face. Zack followed and ran up the back of his Pokémon, leaping into the air and drop kicking the scientist. He took out his key chain knife and slashed at all the tubes. He quickly returned Torch and sprinted out into the hallway, ordering Thorn to follow.
 
" Okay don't say anything." Drew said as he turned away. He walked out of the stadium as he got some air far away from anyone who could see him.
"Excuse me." A man said. Drew looked around and saw the man walk towards him. " Are you Drew Leuric the man who went twelve rounds against Cortez in the Kanto league tournament and barley lost to that coward Riley in Johto?" He asked.
Drew nodded "Yes I am."
The man smiled as he gently touched Drew's shoulder before thrusting a knife into Drew's Torso. " And the man who got in our way and was responsible for all of these deaths."

Drew opened his mouth to try and scream only for the man to grab Drew's mouth. " And the man who has been investigating these so called Masks after you read a note from my dear old dad." He said as he stabbed Drew again. " And let's not forget the grandson of the normal mask." Drew's eyes widened when he heard that. The man gave Drew a sinister smile. " Oh you didn't know that part." He said as he took the knife out of Drew's torso before thrusting it back into the dying man. " That's right. And one more thing. If you didn't try in get in the red scarves way. Peters island would still be the resort that it has been." He said before taking the knife out of Drew as he took his knife out of Drew and walked away. Drew stood for a few seconds before falling to the ground. Tess broke from her pokeball and tried to mend Drew's wounds.
' No.' Tess said. ' Don't you dare dye on me.'
 
After a maze of tunnels and twists and turns, Zack found himself outside a hillside with a giant metal door implanted in it, similar in look to the underwater one he'd seen earlier.
"Freedom!! At la- AH! OW!" Zack stuttered, before stumbling to the ground holding his head. The pain quickly faded, and he stood up in silence for a moment to regain his bearings. He looked at his hand to see a dim orange glow fade from his skin.
"W-What the hell was that?" He asked to the cool summer air. He didn't want to question it any further, not then anyway, and hopped onto Torch. Quickly he rose into the air and located where he was before bulleting off to the stadium. He found Layla and Nion all where they were right before he left, but before he landed near them, the corner of his eye caught Drew on the floor outside the stadium entrance... Bleeding? He quickly changed course and touched down next to him.
"D-Drew? Drew!" Zack said quickly realizing what had happened to him.
"Shit! Hold on!" Zack said, doing his best to carefully lift him up without inflicting further harm. He gently but swiftly placed Drew on his dragon. He then placed Tess next to Drew, and ordered Torch to take them up to the medical tents. The flying lizard obliged and took off up the stadium walls.
Zack wanted to know what happened.
 
Nion had wanted to answer Drew, but was thinking about very important self things. He had no comment to what the others were saying, but when he noticed Zack and Torch with what appeared to be a wounded or dead body Nion looked away when he studied the body more from a distance. Nion may have not had a telescope on him but judging by the shape and the clothes on the body it had been Drew. Nion thought about the situation for a moment thinking what if he had gotten in a conversation with Drew that he wouldn't of got hurt or killed. Nion could tell by Drews body it wasent and accsident what happened to him. Nion had come to the conclusion what had happened had to do with McNiel and he felt like he knew it. Nion may have been called crazy but he had to try and warn the others before he and the others ended up as Drew. "Now guys I know you may think I'm lieing but there's a dark truth to McNiel. Now I would know because back in the kanto league I was about to die by falling off a mountain but he saved me and well that's were I learned who he truly was. He's a man working for an organization idk much about the organization but I personally have come to the conclusion there running this entire thing and are using us trainers to take out whatever other organization is using the weapon that caused this destruction just to get there filthy hands on it. What do you guys think?"Nion had said to the others around him.
 
The scientist watched as the boy escaped with a grin on his face. His plans were now set in motion. By the the time the guards reached the room, the scientist was gone. “Crap! Bother the prisoners have escaped!” One of the guards shouted through a communication device.

Meanwhile, Riley continued to just stare out into the ocean around the island. It was really a wonderful sight at dusk. However, all Riley could think about was the absolute hate he had for McNiel. To be humiliated like that was something he would never forgive, no matter who it was. Riley’s thoughts were interrupted by a mysterious from an associate of his. ‘We should meet once again where the tides meet the Moon. There is much to be discussed. However, there is something you should check out first.’ After reading the text, Riley received a short video from the surveillance camera of Drew being stabbed to death. In a moments notice, Riley had already sent out his Gardevoir before immediately teleporting away.

Riley arrived just in time to hear what Nion has to say. He did his best to stay out of sight as he listened to what Nion. Riley clenched his fists as he did his best to hold off the grin growing on his face. ‘That son of a bitch. I’m going to kill that bastard!’ Riley thought to himself. Now Riley has all the information he needed to take McNiel down. He didn’t even bother to ask Nion if what he said was real or not, he just wanted some revenge. Besides, they would probably be wondering why he would be coming back so soon, especially after what had just happened. So with that, Riley had Gardevoir teleport them once again before they could be seen.
 
McNiel laughed as he walked up to Nion. " Please you must be thinking of something different." He said as he rubbed his chin. " I remember saving you yes but I never said any of that to you." He said. " Police." He said as he snapped his fingers. " This boy is responsible for multiple homicides, gang affiliations, and multiple unkown crimes. take him away." He said the men nodded before they moved closer to cuff Nion. He looked at Nion and simply smiled as if saying ' I warned you.' " Now if you excuse me." He said as he started to walk towards the medical tent. " I heard my grandson was almost murdered today." He said.

James looked over Drew's wounded body. As soon as he saw the body on the charizard he knew something was wrong. He looked at him as he leaned against the side of the tent. ' He has his mother's eyes.' He thought. " And my hair.' He walked over and he gently touched his face. He frowned a little bit as he sat down. ' I wish I could've seen you grow up... son.' he thought.
 
Nion was suprised when McNiel came out of no where and bassically lied to everyone. But when McNiel told the so called "policemen" to arrest him he became pissed at McNiel. "Oh yeah we both know out of the two of us I'm the only one that should also be accused of all those things!"Nion yelled at McNiel in a sarcastic voice. "We both know what I said is true your just a little pussy who can't own it!"Nion yelled at McNiel. "And if your the head of police force come over and cuff me yourself, instead your sending these guys after me after what you know I can do to a human unarmed I'm pretty sure you should know what will happen to these policemen if they dare lay a finger on me, and are these even real policemen I meen I think I remember most of the police force being corrupt!"Nion yelled at McNiel. Then one of the policemen attempted to grab his arm but Nion grabbed the policemans arm and punched his elbow with his entire strength breaking the policemans arm. "Shit!"The policeman said before falling to the ground. "I think I'm gonna go infiltrate the base myself so you and your organization don't get your filthy hands on it."Nion said. Nion hopped back on Blaze who began running to the beach.
 
McNiel just shook his head and laughed. He looked at everyone and smiled. " The boy is deranged." He said as he showed people all his evidence on the man. " Arceous knows how many drugs he's taken. Besides assaulting a police officer is just adding flame to his fire. We will not stop until every piece of scum is taken off the streets." The people nodded and started to clap and cheer McNiel's name. McNiel shot a glance at the Hispanic man further back. He nodded as he let out a breath before leaving the arena

Gabrial Cade walked he used an abra to teleport to the beach. He smiled as he put on his mask. " Let's begin." He said as his voice became somewhat demonic. He moved both of his hands backwards as a blue aura sphere appeared in his hand before firing it at the Blazekin.
 
Zack glanced around him. He had hoped Torch got Drew up to a safe place, but didn't have time to worry about it then. He wanted to know who did it. And he wanted revenge. His eyes locked on a shady looking figure walking away rather quickly, looking like he had something to hide. Bingo. Zack thought, charging after the man.
"You mother-" Zack mumbled as he ran after him.
 
Nion had just been thinking about all the lies McNiel was talking about. "I swear to god I can't wait till someone puts that old shit in his place and I hope I'm the one who does it."Nion said to himself. But then a random man sent a spear after him and Blaze and Nion had no time to react but Blaze sure did, Blaze just barley dogged the attack jumping to the right. Nion saw the man that launched the spear. "Excuse me sir I would like it if you didn't launch spears at me almost killing me!"Nion screamed at the man. "Either way your with McNiel aren't you that stubborn old man can't take the truth!"Nion had said to the man. Nion then returned Blaze. "Ok we can negotiate this no promblems."Nion had said to the man. "Wait I think I remember you from somewhere."Nion had said to himself.
 
Cade simply looked at the man. "McNeil isn't part of our group." He said his voice sounding demonic. "But you are a pain in our side and thus I challenge you to a battle." He said. "Your six against my one."
 
"I'm sorry but I don't really agree with that what about a 1v1 I don't wanna be a little bitch about it, and sir no offense but n pffer of a 1 pokemon vs 6 pokemon is to much unless you have some legendary shoved up your ass."Nion said to the man taking a pokeball off his belt. "Let'a make this quick I've got places to be, Go leafy!"Nion said reading his smeargle.
 
Nion simply returned leafy at what the man was trying to do. "Ok um no offense and I am not letting my Pokémon fight you, I don't know who you are but you clearly are fucking delusional to think I'd let my Pokémon get beat the fuck out of by a human."Nion said to the man. "We agreed on what I thought was a Pokémon battle but no you want to fight my Pokémon yourself I don't agree with that."Nion said to the man. "Now I'll fight you but not my Pokémon."Nion said to the man.
 
As you wish." He said he put his hand into a fist and focused as a yellow aura surrounded it. He ran towards Nion ready to punch him with his focused blast.
 
Nion had jumped to his right in a hurry kicking the mans back as he ran past trying to punch him hoping he'd fall to the ground while he wondered how the hell the man was doing this. Nion had taken out a pocket knife then.
 
Cade took the punch and grabbed Nion's wrist that the hand that was holding the knife was in. He squeezed on it keeping it in a death grip. " Surender now or die little boy." He said his voice was deep and menacing.

The shady figure stopped and turned around. " Zackary." He said as he took his hood off revealing a middle aged blonde hair man looking at him. " It's been a while. I'm not your enemy. I didn't murder Drew."

' Am I dead.' Drew thought as he looked around in the darkness. His eyes stopped when he saw a door of light infront of him. There was something nice and warm about it. He took a step towards the door. He smiled a little bit as he took another step. This was right. He wouldn't have to worry about any of this ever again. Besides who would really miss him. No one he talked to he considered a friend. Hell they only speak every six months, His mother only cared about Chloe, His step dad didn't think much of him, and Poli left him. All of his pokemon probably would leave him if they had a chance.
' Don't die on me.' He heard a voice softly say at him it made him stop in his tracks. It was feminine he never heard the voice before but it was as if he knew her. ' Tess.' he thought.
' Don't you abandon me like he did.' He heard tess say. He turned around and saw the Kirlia looking at him. Tears where pouring out of her eyes. " Tess you can have a better life without a loser like me." He said. "Without someone who was responsible for so many deaths. Tess looked at him her sadness turned into anger as the blackness changed to the outside of a stadium. "Goldenrod." He thought. Tess nodded.
He looked and saw a younger version of himself buying an ice cream cone. He looked at it questioningly as he took a step closer.

Drew was excited to say the least. He just beat his opponent and is moving on to the finals to fight against Riley. He was mentally prepairing himself for the battle. ' you can do this.' he thought as he sat down outside of the stadium. He was about to take a lick of his ice cream before a strange blue aorua appeared and the ice cream floated away. " hey." He said he looked at saw a strange white pokemon with blue like hair grab the floating ice cream and take a lick of it.
Drew never saw a pokemon like that before. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his pokedex.
* Ralts the feeling pokemon*
* indeginous in Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Kalos*
Drew looked at the ralts and wondered why it was here. He got up slowly before jumping towards the ralts. He stopped mid air as a blue aura appeared around him with in seconds he was flung backwards hitting the grass at high speed.
' Owe.' He thought as he stood up and limped over to the ralts. He sat down beside it. " How does the ice cream taste." He said the Ralts smiled as it said it's name cheerfully before taking another lick of the ice cream. Drew smiled at the thing. " Where's your trainer at." He said. Ralts stopped eating as it closed it's eyes and a tear ran down it's cheek.
Instantly Drew had a feeling about what happened. " I'm sorry to hear that." He said as he moved a little closer to it. He quickly swiped the ice cream away and took a lick of it. He looked and saw the Ralts about to cry. He smiled at it as he handed the ice cream back. the ralts smiled and took another lick of it. It looked at Drew and handed the ice cream back. Drew smiled softly as he took it and took another lick. They proceded to do this until only the cone was left. Drew broke the cone in half and gave half of it to the ralts to took it and nibbled on it. " good bye." He said as he stood up and started to walk way only to be stopped telepathically. He looked and saw the ralts looking at him it grabbed his belt that his pokeballs were on. She examined them before tapping on one of them. The ball activated and the ralts went inside. ' What the hell." he said as he regained control of his body. The ralts left the ball after being caught and looked up at Drew with a smile on it's face. Drew took out his pokedex and checked the sex of the ralts.
' Female.' the dex read
" Tess." He said thinking back to an old friend of his from grade school. Tess smiled and jumped onto Drew.

Drew smiled as he looked at the memory. ' You really were assertive.' He thought he looked to his side and saw the Kirlia who forced her way onto his team and into his heart.
' Of course.' She said with a smile. ' I needed away to get all of those sweets.' She said jokingly. ' Please don't leave me. This day... after spending a week alone after Terry abandoned me.' She said.' You could've took the ice cream and ran but instead you shared it.' She said as looking at him. 'It was that day that made me want to fallow you.' She let out a breath as she put her arms around him. 'You've become my best friend.' She said as she gently kissed his cheek. ' No matter what I did you always forgave me. I love you.' She said as she hugged him.

" You love me." He said in disbelief. " Tess I'm flattered but I'm not into pokemon that way." he said. Tess just looked at him. She picked him off the ground and flinged him into the air. "NOT THAT WAY YOU PERVERT!!!" She screamed. " Besides." She said with a smirk. " I'm like Nightmare that way." She said.
He smiled as he disappeared.

Drew woke up feeling the pain from the knife wounds. He winced in pain as he looked to the left and saw Tess smiling at him with tears in her eyes. She wrapped her arms around his neck as she held him close. ' I'll never let this happen to you again.' She said to him telepathically. ' I swear it.' She said as she got into the bed and laid beside him.

Zack stopped in his tracks about 2 feet away from the familiar face.
"You," Zack said, remembering the night where Riley was injected, and Zack had fought a bunch of his henchmen. Out of pure anger and thirst for revenge of Drew, he clenched his fist as the orange aura began surrounding him again. He let out a yell and full force punched the man in his chest, sending him into a wall nearby. Zack was stunned at the aftermath. He knew he was strong, but not that strong. He looked at his fist which was irradiating with an orange glow.
"--What the hell..." Zack muttered, before bringing his attention to Calvin. "That's for Drew," He said as he walked towards him, with a fire in his eyes.
 
Calvin coughed up a little blood. " Nice punch." He said as he stood up he smiled a little bit. " You avenged Drew for the time I punched him in his stomach and knocked him out." He said as he stumbled towards the man. " Now Me and my employer didn't harm Drew. I was trying to get here before the bastard killed him." He said. " The world has changed. Good and evil are much harder to see now." He said.
 
“So it seems as if the procedure did work.” The man said as he watched Zack and Calvin through the stadium’s security footage. “What a shame really. If only the boy would’ve listened, we could’ve seen his true potential. Too bad the Council will have to change their plans, especially since the boy is not as qualified as they thought.” The man was too focused watching the footage that he didn’t hear the door to the room open. “Who’s not qualified for what?” Riley asked as he walked into the tournament manager’s hotel room.

The manager grinned before walking up to shake Riley’s hand. “It’s been awhile Riley, how have things been going?” The manager asked, putting on a fake smile. However, Riley was not buying it. “You know damn well why I’m here! You told me to come to where the tides meet the Moon so I came too Moontide hotel to see you. If I wasn’t here, I would be going after McNiel!” Riley exclaimed, still furious after hearing what Nion had said. Riley didn’t catch the evil grin the manager had. “That’s what I wanted to talk about actually. I saw what happened and I just knew you wouldn’t let yourself be humiliated like that and leave it.” The manager told Riley. “So do you have information on McNiel?” Riley asked, slightly more interested in what the manager had to say. “Yes, definitely. I’ll tell you anything you want to know about McNiel.” The manager said with a grin. “Good, now tell me, what organization is he apart of?” Was the first question Riley asked. “The masqueraders.” The manager responded without hesitation.

“What type of dumbass name is that?!” Riley asked, believing it was a joke. “Let me speak.” The manager said in a more serious tone, shutting Riley up. “Let me start by explaining the goal of the masqueraders. First off, I’m sure you won’t be suprised when I tell you McNiel isn’t the only one with such a high rank in our society who is a part of this group. Throughout the centuries, they have had many notable people who have been a part of this organization. Their goal is too reclaim the power that was stolen during the war 1000 years ago. That’s right Riley, the war you learned about in grade school, there was more to it than even the champions know themselves.” The manager paused, giving Riley some time to process things. “And how are they supposed to achieve this? McNiel is an old man for crying out loud!” Riley asked the Manager. “The masks.” The manager stated. “There is a mask for each type. The masks give them their power. For example...” The manager then moved out of the way to show Riley the fight between Cade and Nion. “This man here is the Mask of Fighting. Now watch what he will do to your friend and then you shall understand.” The manager told Riley as he backed away. Riley slowly walked up to the screen to watch the fight.
 
Nion saw as he was stuck not being able to escape he took out a flashlight hitting the man across the face with it being able to escape from his clutches he took a piece of rubble off the ground throwing it at the man.
 
Nion fell to the ground after all the punches and kicks. And picked up a rod metal that was laying beside him on the ground before swinging it with all his strength at the man.
