~Arthur's~
(N's Farewell - Pokemon Black/White)
Shit, I can't find Tyler Nowhere. He sent us a message saying he's on the mountains outskirts. Jason let me go because I can fly faster than him. It doesn't help it was dark and Tyler blends with the scenery. I rushed over the whole area frantically. As I Looked around I saw that there were ice shards along the mountain and trees along with the trees slightly singed and marked with ash. I tracked his location from his Orb and it showed he fought team Inferno and I saw a crater in the mountain where Polo passed out. I wonder what happened here? I fly down where the ice was and above the trees. That's when I noticed a reflection of moonlight. I flew down and saw the flag and right above it was a sleeping figure. Their tail had ice on it and there were light scorch marks on his body and some of his fur was burned off. Also did I mention he was asleep in his origin form. It was kind of cute, he must've worked hard to get Inferno's flag. I then noticed his eyes were opening slightly. They were so perfect in the moonlight it makes me want to stare into his golden eyes all night.
"Arthur have you come for me?" he spoke in a hushed and hesitant voice, unlike how he's recently been presenting himself.
"You did call, unless-" I was cut off by Tyler falling into me.
"Please carry me back, I used all of my energy" he whispered. I picked him up and he relaxed in my claws.
"You can't fall asleep just yet, I need you to carry the flag" I spoke softly trying to soothe him.
"I can do that" he grabbed it with his talons and we flew off. I didn't go as fast as I normally would otherwise Tyler would be uncomfortable. While flying I took a glimpse at Tyler he looked so cute. He tried nuzzling into me to get warm, his eyes were lidded and it looked as if they were glowing gold, his tail was wrapped around my leg as if he needed to know I was holding and would keep him safe.
"Arthur?"
"Yes?" He had his eyes closed as if thinking.
"Thank you for doing this and I want to say I'm sorry for lashing out at you the other week. You didn't deserve it and-" I chuckled as he started to ramble.
"No need to apologize, everyone needs to let off steam at times" his eyes widened.
"Though how I've been treating everyone isn't fair. I only been acting this way because" I couldn't hear the rest, he mumbled to himself.
"Shh, let's just enjoy the ride" Tyler smiled at me and relaxed. It's been a while since I've been with Tyler like this and I have to admit I sort of missed this. Though my pride won't let me admit to his face.
"Arthur?"
"Hm" I was caught in a kiss. His lips felt familiar and I missed having them against mine. Much to my dismay it ended quickly.
"This is my way of saying thank you" even in the dark, I could see him blush. "Also I can cross a romantic kiss under the stars off my bucket list" he giggled as if he was back to his peppy self.
We enjoyed the flight back in silence though it was a comfortable silence, Tyler was enjoying my company and I was enjoying his. Though I wish we could be like this all the time if not as lovers, I wouldn't even mind as his friend because after this year I realized Tyler does mean a lot to me.
~Tyler's~
I woke up and it was daylight and I was outside. Last thing I remember is kissing Arthur, I blushed. I then realized I'm trapped in someone's arms. I don't remember going back to anthro. I looked down at my waist and there were strong purple arms there. I then realized someone's breath was tickling my neck. I felt really hot.
"Tyler, stop moving. Let's stay like this a little longer" Arthur groaned. If it was Arthur then isn't Jason somewhere nearby?
"Arthur, what if Jason sees?!" I started to squirm.
"Don't worry he's out getting stuff" he started caressing my side and nibbling on my neck.
"Ah, Arthur" I tried to be quiet but it felt so good. He knew what he's doing. I was shivering in pleasure. I clinged back to his body giving access to more of my body.
"That's what I like to see" he growled lightly in my ear. I'm so glad he can't see my face. "Sadly Jason will be back soon" Arthur stopped what he was doing and let go of me.
"H-hey" I turned around and he was already up stretching.
"What do you want from me? I only needed to rest a bit before the final push" Arthur spoke while stretching and smirked at me.
"Same as always, why do I even bother" I sigh.
'Because you miss the attention' Axel laughed.
'I don't need to hear it from you' I retorted.
"What do you mean by final push?" I asked.
"There are eighteen teams left and massive fights are about to take place. Jason ran out to scout the remaining teams and to get food"
"Why fight on an empty stomach" Jason swooped in.
"Nice job, now we can get started quickly" Arthur complimented Jason. Most of what Jason grabbed a lot of fruit and nuts. "Tyler, I know you like sweet stuff so I got a lot of sitrus berries and yache berries though it would be smart for all of us to eat some" I started chowing down on the sitrus berries and ate two yache.
"Jason, what were you able to find?" Arthur asked while eating slowly.
"I found that Team:Distortion led by James is on its last legs. Team: Storm is reliant only on their Leader Leaf and he gets healing from his teammates, if you take him out we should be golden. Team:Null has no weakness and no sign of fatigue. Team: Overcrest it would seem is planning to cause a ruckus" Listening to Jason, I honestly though he was dumb.
"What about the others?" Arthur asked.
"Front runners like Team:Wave led by Mona and Team:Rock led by Liz have been off the radar" Jason sounded disappointed by his find.
"Okay we need to head out quickly" Arthur got up after finishing his food.
"What's the plan?" I asked.
"We're going to meet Team Overcrest head on" my eyes widened at his statement.
"Are you crazy!"
"I agree with Tyler!" Jason yelled.
"Well I mean we're going to meet them head on but I will take Volcan while you two branch off and distract them. The whole thing isn't so we can steal their flag it's so we can cause a commotion and steal others flags" I understand where he's coming from, but still. We then hear an explosion go off.
"I guess it's now or never" Jason sighed.
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"Let's go!" Arthur raced off and Jason and I followed. While we were flying I realized how big our zone extended, it was about a 100 diameter bubble.
A/N: For all you nerds the area is 7850 meters or 4.87 miles.
(Jet Set Run - My Hero)
We reached the end of the city and reached old Ferrum Town. We come to see James get blown back by Volcan.
"Sorry buddy, but the challenge comes first, then friends" he threw the flag to Snap and ran it out of the zone.
"Team:Distortion flag stolen, Eliminated! Seventeen teams remain!" The automated voice spoke.
"Take a look at what our little scandal dragged in" Volcan pointed at us. "Want a rematch from last year Arthur" Volcan taunted.
"Damn right, let's get it going!" Arthur raced in and slammed at the ground causing it to quake.
"You missed" Volcan taunted again. When the ground started to split Volcan dodge all gaps.
"Who said you were my target" Lava then started to spew out. Though it wasn't like it was oozing it was being manipulated. I looked for Jason but he wasn't next to me anymore. He had four balls of lava floating around him.
"He was supporting me" Jason spoke with confidence.
"Don't forget about me" A red aura flared around me as I joined the rest of my team.
"So you want a team battle let's go!" Almost instantly Snap and Flora were next Volcan. Flora in her Alolan form and Snap in some new mega form I've never seen before.
"Everyone! Break!" Volcan and Arthur Clashed and the rest of us split. I was paired with Flora and the both of us started racing through the streets of Neos city.
"I didn't get to fight you during the festival so let's make this fun" she started to create a whirlwind of leaves throughout the area making it hard for me to fly.
"It was a shame but let me show you what I can do in a fight" Creating a giant Hurricane in the center of the street dispelling her whirlwind, though I lost sight of her.
"In here" She jumped through the Hurricane and bashed me with her tail. I couldn't block in time and was sent into the forcefield in front of a building. That must've been dragon tail. " I'm not just a pretty face Tyler, though I focus mostly on performances, I'm not a bad fighter" she gave a small giggle.
"Team:Overturn flag stolen, Eliminated! Sixteen teams remain!"
"Let's keep going" my wings hard like steel. She was preparing a pink like beam.
"Take this, Blast!" She shot it and I charged right at it. It clashed with my wings though it felt weak, must've been a moon blast. I selected it back at her and continued my charge. Using a heat wave I made the steel hot.
"Take this Blaze wing!" After being hit with her own moon blast I sliced her with my wings.
"We're not done here" I heard her grunt after the attack. "Let's go, Burst!" I turned around and she was giving off massive amounts of synergy energy.
"Synergy gauge full" my Orb let me know.
"Let's end it here, Burst!" Flowing with massive amounts of synergy energy, I also allowed myself to transform to perfect noivern. Another whirlwind of leaves surrounded here as her skin started to glow. I started to focus energy in my wings and they glowed with purple like light.
"Take this combo move Solar Wind!" A beam of green light blasted from her mouth and the beam was followed with a whirlwind of leaves.
"Finishing strike: Break slash!" The blast collided with my wings and me doing my best to slice it.
"Team: Utopia flag stolen, Eliminated! First stage done" You hear the automated voice but Flora and I didn't stop, but the one moment I stopped focusing and the blast overpowered me and took it on the full power being sent back into the forcefield.
"Tyler you okay?" Flora instantly came to my side.
"I'm fine, but now what do we do?" I asked.
"Will the remaining teams return to the Ferrum stadium!" I smiled at the sound of the computer voice.
"Let's get going" Flora offered her assistance and I took it.
"Welcome back, I hope you enjoyed yourselves because we did from watching you guys" Dean Dark spoke as the monitors behind him show our fights. " I have to say there are some of you who surprised me. First Off Jason Gon kicking off the challenge with two captures in less then three hours. Following him is Tyler Loft and being able to take on Team Inferno on his own. Next up is Volcan Overcrest and him being able to take down multiple opponents at once. Last we have Gladion Null and his adaptability in any situation" As he spoke about each of us it showed our fights on each screen.
"Tyler, I didn't know you actually took down a whole team" I blushed at the compliment from Flora.
"It took all my energy though"
"Now if Team: Iron would join the remaining fifteen teams we can continue to the second stage" Dean Dark asked and instantly three pokemon took the field. A Duraludon, Charizard, and Boltund. "Now, for the second stage you will create four giant teams and will have to navigate a maze. The first sixteen to cross the finish line will continue to the final stage, which is the Chroma league tournament!" Dean Dark got the crowd roaring.
"Why then be split into four big teams if you only need to make it individually!?" Blaze asked.
"You can work together to take out other teams, fight amongst yourselves, or even split up it's all up to you what you do in these big teams. Just make sure you cross that finish in the top sixteen. Now for your teams!" The four screens filled with four teams each.
"Tyler, it would seem we get to work together again" I turn to see Mona. "Though we get to work with" Mona was cut off.
"I remember you two from the Grand festival" Sonia followed by her team joined us.
"Yay, who else gets to work with us?" you can hear the sarcasm dripping from Arthur's voice.
" I do" an Obstagoon approached us followed by two toxitricity.
"Oh you're Liz Fang right?" Jason asked.
"Damn straight" her voice had a rocker sound to it.
"If you have met with your teams, you will now be sent to the distortion world. The first sixteen to make it out of the crazy maze advance. You have two hours though it might feel like days before you come out. Now, Begin!"
We were all swallowed by darkness and when we came to again we were in some fucked up version of reality.
'Hey don't talk bad about dad's home!' He never gets defensive, but boy was it threatening, so i didn't even give him a response.
"Guys let's figure a way out of here quickly" The Charizard started to speak. We walked out of where we spawned which was on a bridge and walked into a town that looked similar to old Ferrum town.
"Does anyone know the weakness to Giratina's power in this world" Liz asked, a bit annoyed.
'You better not say shit!' my head rang as Axel talked. I held my head to help alleviate the pain.
"I believe it's mirrors, "Mona spoke out.
"If we can find a mirror it will be easy for us to get out of here" Arthur finished the thought everyone had.
"Woah, a bubble it's so pretty" Sonia spoke excitedly.
"Wait Sonia don't pop it" On the image of the bubble it showed the Ferrum stadium. She popped it anyway.
"Popping that bubble has an effect on the real world and can cause a pulse of force on anyone around and can cause a lot of damage" Jason spoke out as a smart ass.
"Guys, let's not stand around, it's already getting dark" The Duraludon spoke.
We continued moving, but with everything warped and there not being a right or wrong for direction it felt like we were walking for hours. At some point we came to a dead end.
"That's the third one we hit" Arthur let out a frustrated growl.
"Let's head back-" Sonia was mid sentence.
"I don't think that'll be possible for you guys" We looked to see Blaze, Skye, Leaf, and Snap blocking our way.
"What do you guys want?" I asked.
"We're just a small elite group tasked with knocking others out of the running" Leaf readied an arrow.
"Already we are fighting?" I scoffed.
"We should've been doing this sooner" Liz spoke out with excitement.
"Not really a fight more like a trap, Skye" Blaze commanded. Massive sparks of lightning came crashing down around us. Leaf then shot many arrows into his ghost dimension and they started shooting around us.
"Ahhh" I heard Sonia scream and I turned to look, she fell off the ledge.
"Sonia, I'm coming" the Duraludon ran and jumped off with her, catching her.
"You idiot Raihan" The Charizard flew off and caught both of them but he was struggling to stay aloft.
"We need to knock a few more of you off" Snap rushed in and punched off both Toxitrcity on Liz's team.
"Two members of Team:Rock are eliminated" The automated voice rang in.
"Wait, you can be eliminated if you sustain too much damage!" I spoke alarmed.
"Leon, can you even keep us up" I hear panic in Sonia's voice, but I can't worry about her right now.
'Let me handle this' Axel spoke calmly.
'No I can do this on my own' I spoke with haste.
'I wasn't asking' I was then pushed in the depths of my mind as Axel took control.
~Axel's~
(Hope Ster - Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth)
It would seem I have more power in the distortion world then in the real one. With me taking control of our body our form changed to match me. Our scales becoming black, our wings disappearing and blood red spikes running down our back. Matching our blood red claws. With me appearing the massive energy surge forced some pokemon back.
"Two members of Team:Wave are eliminated!" I like the sound of that. I rushed in at Blaze, Tyler has a lot of distaste for him so why not target him first.
"Take this you ass!" Charging power up in my right arm I aimed for his chest but he dodge making me hit the ground and causing it to quake.
"You're too slow Tyler" he taunted me. I then in a flash appear behind him.
"Want to say that again" I spoke in an aggressive tone, landing the Mega punch square in his back.
"When could Tyler move so fast?" Skye spoke with alarm. I then looked to Blaze and it seemed his body was plunged in darkness.
"Yowai Two, member of Team:Null, Eliminated!" I chuckled as I landed behind the strike squad that decided to attack us.
"Want to continue your assault?" I spoke with confidence and a big smirk. They just looked at me alarmed. " I take your silence as a yes, now let's continue" using throat chop. I hit Skye in the back of the neck sending her sliding down the ledge. Snap came at me with a flurry of blows. I took them full on waiting for the right moment and when he went to step back I countered using his own flurry of attacks against him. He was sent flying back into a hole of darkness too.
"Snap Gator, member of Team:Overcrest, Eliminated!" I love this feeling of finally being able to unleash my power, I have to thank dad later.
"Leaf, I'll let you go with Skye, but if I see you again I won't hesitate" I snapped at them, While Leaf took Skye and hopped in his ghostly hole.
"What the hell was that?" Arthur asked with alarm.
"Basic fighting let's go" I Spoke and started to walk off.
"What about Sonia, Leon and Raihan?" Mona asked, a bit panicked.
"They are fine, they didn't get eliminated so it's good" Liz spoke nonchalantly.
"All members of Team:Iron have found an exit, only thirteen spots remaining!"
"What the hell!" Didn't they fall off the edge.
"They did. Must've found a mirror where they fell" Jason spoke as if thinking out loud.
"Two members of Team:Nextage, Ghana hicks and Janis Lock found an exit, only eleven remain!"
"Come on No more time to waste" We walk off in this distorted area which to me feels so familiar.
Action: Okay, things are heating up and I'm loving it.
Tyler: Blaze eliminated before the final stage, you sly dog.
Blaze: honestly.
Action: No complaining from you Blaze you got enough screen time.
Mona & Liz: It's our turn.
Snap: What about me I didn't get shown off that well.
Action: Talk to me after you read chapter fifteen where you fight Volan's dad. Moving on.
Duke: Don't forget to fav, follow and review. Action, love to hear from readers.
James: Next chapter should be out right now anyway, so we'll see you there.
Duke & James: Bye!
