Action: Okay, ready for another chapter.

Gladion: Not me there seems to be some weird infection going around.

Action: Don't worry you're safe for now.

Skye: Highly doubt it.

Action: Okay, the both of you. Duke, disclaimer please.

Duke: Action does not own pokemon or pokken.

~Tyler's~

It's not good, it's only been a week since the initial outbreak of this weird virus. Doctors were able to figure out that they were injected with basic synergy crystals, but something had to trigger their rampage. They were saying because of their synergy overflow they needed to release it in battle. It doesn't help though after they rampage they need more synergy and will mindlessly fight another student into submission, then bite them infecting another student and forcing a rampage and right now James and Skye are in the hospital being restrained because of their hunger for synergy. About 100 students of 480 are infected and they had to temporarily shut down school and all events. We've all been advised to stay in our dorms to stop the spread and they do daily check ins and what scary is you can rampage at any point. Some believe there is a trigger phrase of the sorts.

Blaze has been doing tests on synergy crystals to see if he can help and so has Zack but he's been doing blood tests on samples that Blaze gave him. I've just been bored in my room doing art and writing. I still have Skye's gift lying on my desk. I hope she feels better soon.

I was instantly interrupted by my Orb screen appearing in front of me "Tyler, it's me Zack. I think I found something" Zack was very excited.

"If it's the latest expansion of cardfight Vanguard, I'm not in the mood right now" I said going back to drawing.

"Tyler, I'm talking about the blood test, I think I may know what causes a rampage" I then started paying attention.

"Awesome what is it-" I then stopped, I heard a sharp and loud ring. " Did you hear that?" Zack gave me a quizzical look.

"No,-" he was going to say something else, but I got another call from Gladion. I thought about rejecting it because he is rooming with James, but I remembered he's with Skye.

"Hey, what is it-" I stopped mid-sentence and looked at the screen. Gladion was rampaging in his room. He was growling and looking at me, his eyes I could tell were red. "Gladion, you alright!" I screamed looking at him.

"Don't, worry, I'm, going, to be, alright" Gladion said slowly. It was as if he was fighting it. I instantly saw some pokemon bust into the room and it looked like security was pulling him away with a muzzle on. Gladion hates muzzles, I hope he'll be alright. Though it's weird he instantly went into a rampage. What was that high pitched ring about? Weirdly enough Zack hasn't called me back, did he cause the rampage? No, he wouldn't, none of my friends would.

I was thrusted out of my thinking when I heard a knock on the door. I waited for a voice, but nothing. I went to the door and opened it. There was a box with my name on it so I took it inside. I opened it and inside were four synergy crystals they were, pink, Black, Yellow, and Purple.

"Hey Tyler, I hope you like them" Blaze's screen appeared right in front of me. Guys need to stop calling me randomly.

"What are they?" I pulled the black one out.

"I finally made fusion crystals out of our friends blood and I was wondering if you are compatible with the ones I made. Don't use them now, only use one at a time during a fight" He explained. " It's similar to a synergy burst/ mega evolution. Now, anything new?" I put the crystals in my desk drawer.

"Gladion became infected with the virus" I said as if I was drained out. Blaze nods his head while going over to his computer.

"He never let me test him and now he's infected" he grumbled while putting in some information on his computer. "It doesn't help that Duke, Volcan, Arthur, and Flora are infected as well," Blaze said, a little upset.

"They got infected too, I haven't read up on the recent stuff can you tell me?" Blaze then started typing.

"Here's the paper from this morning, 408 students infected and counting. We as a whole are now calling this the Synergy virus or S-virus for short. The virus has seemed to evolve for the students to no longer have a conscience and are brainless zombies. Students' rampage power have also increased and can go on multiple rampages" Blaze states calmly, but this is just uncomforting. Once again there was a knock on the door.

"Tyler, open up quickly, it's Leaf!" He was in a panic. I opened the door and he was all dressed up and had a bag with him. I could also see Jason behind him and Glitz knocking on Blaze's door.

The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

"Pack all of your essentials, we are getting out of this school now" after Leaf said that I grabbed my backpack and put some clothes, my z crystals and the crystals Blaze gave me. I look at all my drawings and posters, and then land on my jewelry and stuff it in my bag. As I exit my room I see Blaze, Leaf and the others waiting.

"Um, where's Ashley and Snap?" I asked.

"We don't know when we went to their rooms they were gone" Jason said flatly. " Now who has a plan to get out of the building there are school guards everywhere" Jason pointed out.

"Let's head to the roof. I have an idea," Glitz said running to the stairs and climbing up to the roof and to our luck there wasn't a guard up there. "Okay, Tyler, Leaf, Jason, and Blaze. You all can fly, now who wants to carry me" Glitz said.

"I'll do it and let's hurry, we need to get to the mountains" Glitz got on Leaf's back and we flew off towards the mountains. If I'm not mistaken there is a ruins and within the ruins is a protected stadium. As we flew by I didn't see any guards, but we did see Towns Pokemon rampaging in the streets and towns outside of fights.

"Wow it's been spreading to the pokemon that just live here too," Blaze said. As we were flying I saw three hooded figures in the streets and towns, but they weren't rampaging like the others. Are they the cause of all this?

"It's sad to see in a week that all of this happened. All this damage and ruckus" we all looked toward Jason who had a gloomy face.

"Yeah, I hope there will be a fix soon," Glitz said, a bit depressed.

"Yeah, but we weren't going to sit there in our dorms and get infected too," Leaf said a bit angrily.

~Leaf's~

We made it to the Regi Runs as it's formally known. It's not too far from the Training stadium, but far enough for us not to be spotted.

"Guess we're setting up camp here for now," Blaze said while pulling out a small trinket.

"What is that?" I asked, but I guess I said it with a bit too much sass and gained a lot of 'what the fuck stares from everyone'.

"This is an invention I whipped up quickly before we left. It makes a campsite automatically. I just need to put in the number of us there are" he said while putting the number five. Instantly five tents appeared around us with our respective colors along with there being a camp fire.

"That's cool, anyway call me if you need anything" I walked off heading into my green tent and it was the greatest thing I saw. It was accustomed to everything I liked and even had a replica of my feathers mixed with ghost aura. It's almost a replica of my dorm room with Duke, and Zack. I'm amazed with the technology Blaze is able to produce. I just lay on my bed and threw down my bag. I went through my Orb news and only saw the latest info on growing numbers of students and nothing else. That's a little suspicious since the whole Ferrum region is infected with this S-virus. Why wouldn't they point that out to their students. I pulled out my phone and it was saying the same thing, weird. I went back outside my tent to see everyone was inside their tents beside Blaze.

"Blaze do you have anything that could surf the net" I asked casually.

"Nothing besides my Orb and phone, why?" Blaze asked.

"Just a question I had" I walked away. Maybe I can head to Volcan's room. He studies a lot of tech and made a computer, or even our room, I know Zack should have one hidden somewhere. I wish I could've been there when he was taken away, but what could I do, he was infected and I was busy getting everyone together.

"I'll be heading out for a bit. I'll be back before it gets completely dark" I yelled to Blaze and the others. I was off back to the dorms and yet again it seemed like pokemon were still rampaging, but I didn't come across anyone with a black hood on like last time. I entered through the roof and belined for Volcan's room. I used phantom force to get through the door and his room is a mess and I see a bunch of miscellaneous tech all over. I guess he never had a breakthrough when it came to his inventions. I saw on his deck there was a desktop more than likely handcrafted, so I powered it on and it was already unlocked as if it was just asleep. Maybe Volcan was Looking something up before he went on a rampage and trashed his room. I opened the browser and went to the news and I got my answer.

"Ferrum region on lock down, outbreak of S-Virus" I said to myself. I then heard a noise and instantly shut off the computer. It was coming from the hallway.

"Boss said it's running smoothly, though some slipped under the radar and escaped. Luckily we spotted them going to the mountains. We have someone who's going to take care of it" I couldn't tell who owned the voice. I used my ghost powers and made my body fluid like a spirit and fused with the floor they were walking on.

"Alright everything's going as planned, all we need now is for the boss to say the word and the Ceremony will begin" I was able to see their faces.

"Ashley and Snap!" I yelled but I regretted it and changed back to my normal form.

"Ashley we have to chase him!" I heard Snap yell.

"Orb send a message" I saw my screen appear as I started heading back to the roof. "Blaze I found out the students aren't getting the full story on what's going on. Also Snap and Ashley seem to have something to do with this, send" I say as I make it to the roof.

"You won't be going anywhere" Ashley said flatly. Instantly I was surrounded by a pink like wind and trapping me in a sphere like cage.

"Looks like we got one of the five we need to get rid of," Snap said with a smirk.

"Ashley, Snap why" I asked surprised my two friends were trapping me.

"Well, I work for the big boss but right now Ashley is under our mind control" Snap says while swirling his finger.

"Though what about Gladion, how could you do this to him" I say furious.

"They never said the job would be easy and it hurt seeing the one I want to be mine go on a rampage" I rolled my eyes at the thought. "Also thanks to Zack's and Blaze's research on everyone they got blood samples from it was easier to execute the plan. All we need to do is capture the other three and bring Tyler to the big boss" Snap said to Ashley.

"Who's the big boss?'' I said confused.

"Oh, sorry for keeping you out of the loop it's Dean MT," Ashley stated.

Action: So the true villain is revealed and it's the dean.

Tyler: He never seemed trustworthy to me anyway.

Jason: I want to strangle him for all of this.

Blaze: Calm down guys he's the one with the army of S-virus students and civilians.

Glitz: Guys he's right.

Action: With that we will end the chapter, a short one compared to others.

Leaf: Don't forget to fav,Follow, and leave a review, cause Action needs it. Also since Action never got votes for the Fan favorite character x reader. The character he chose is Michael from high school Daze.

Everyone: Anyway bye!
