"Toto dile!" Work over! G.o.dzilla the Totodile had jumped onto the deck and shook himself off. t.i.tan the Nidorino jumped right after. Both were exhausted and collapsed.

"Boooooom!" One large explosion went off. It shook the whole island. A few small waves rocked the s.h.i.+p. A small Rescue Unit had made it over on a submersible. Seeing the area shake, a bunch of people on the St.Anne II stared out fearing the worst.

"Silver... you better not die." Crystal tightened her hands and waited. Next to her, Sabrina stopped breathing. "Sabrina.. they will be fine." She tried her best to rea.s.sure the woman. Following the gaze of one of her idols, Crystal went from worry to shock.

"Woooohhooo!" Someone screamed from the air. It was from Gray. The others were suspended underneath him by psychic power. Gray was letting them free fall as they went down in an arc. "Better than skydiving! We need to do that again!"

"How about not." Silver said. He looked to the woman and realized who she was. "Your the missing Gym Leader from Blackthorn City. Your name is Clair right?"

"Grrr I am. What about it?!" Clair was still angry but kept it under control by Gray's aura. She couldnt even fight back. 'How the h.e.l.l did he calm the dragon inside me?! Who is this guy!?' She eyeballed Gray feeling like a caged animal. 'First captured then manhandled! Ughhh things have gone from terrible to worse.'

"Ok, nevermind then." Silver could tell she was not a happy camper right now. Getting grabbed and suppressed by Gray did not look fun. 'Better than getting caught in an explosion. She should be happy. We are really high up.'

"Fwoos.h.!.+" Gray teleported everyone once they started to travel down at a fast pace. Landing on the boat main deck with ease, people were happy to see more survivors.

"Waaa!" Piplup moaned. Sobble had fainted the moment they were airborne. It was safe to say, he did not enjoy heights. Or explosions maybe.

"Silver!" Crystal tackled the young man so hard, he was knocked out of his fusion. "If you ever ride an explosion again, I will ring your neck!" On top of him, she was doing just that. Choking him and shaking him repeatedly. "I was so scared!" A few gave a smile towards them."

"Mukk!" The giant Muk woke up. The trainers that pulled Grimers free and kept Muk under control, hightailed it out of there when they felt the explosions. "Grrooo!"

"Aw, man." Gray grumbled. "I figure it would have shrunken a lot more." He walked over to Sabrina. To check on her among other things. "How did the rest of the things go?"

"You big jerk!" Sabrina yelled. She grabbed his s.h.i.+rt and looked at him. Gray thought for a second that she used Mean Look on him. It was just his imagination. "Who rides an explosion?!"

"Well.." Gray figured it was not a big deal. Especially considering the things they have done already.

"You could have been seriously injured. Do not do that to yourself!" Sabrina admonished him. Her eyes had a little black trace in them.

"Nah." Gray gave her a hug. "I used the move Protect. Had it ready just in case a powerful Pokemon attacked. It was a lab with all kinds of things. So... I figured." He gave a shrug. Sabrina still looked upset. "Which a wild woman did attack." He pointed his thumb back at Clair. "Look what I caught."

"I am not captured!" Clair fumed. "I am not a pokemon!" Her eyes burned with aura power.

"Well, I dont know." Gray teased. He still held Sabrina as he spoke. "Those two kids had their minds swapped with Pokemon. So maybe a pokemon swapped with you." Clair just gave a huff.

"Gray.. why are you holding me so close?" Sabrina asked a little embarra.s.sed after she calmed down. She instantly became self-aware from his aura.

"Because you were all panicky." Gray gave her a kiss on the forehead and let her go. "Since you are calm now, I guess I should let go. Need more explosions to take advantage of the situation." Looking at Crystal and Silver, he seperated the two. "Oi, you really will kill him at that rate."

A few on the s.h.i.+p stared a little shock at what was revealed. The officers focusing on his wanting to use explosions to take advantage of a woman.

'This guy is something else.' A Rescue Officer Jenny thought. 'But he did get the job done. The island seems to be fine.' Looking at her Pokegear, she looked over the satellite imagery of the last 8 hours again. A quick scan showed that the island would be fine. But that was preliminary results. She wanted to send the job to Gray but dismissed after the info she gathered from the others. 'This report just needs any info from the facility to help build a case.'

"Waaah!" Silver eyes floated like the little Piplup to the side. One of the men who yelled at Gray earlier made their move. He was moving towards the two Pokemon. Gray felt the movement since he had the Pokemon kids still wrapped up.

"Shadow Ball!" Gray fired the black warping sphere at the man. His body slid along the deck into the railings. "Stay away from them before I rip you apart!" His voice came out dark and twisted. Floating the two Pokemon kids over, he placed them in Sabrina's arms. "Do not let anyone near them. A key witness in what happened."

"Ughh." The man groaned against the railing. He stood up and stared at Gray. His hand moved to grab a pokeball that was not there. "Where is it!?" He panicked. Looking around he saw it roll over the side. "No!" He jumped over after it. The rolling black pokeball was more important than his life apparently.

"Why did you attack him?" A pa.s.senger asked.

"He was the parent of the Piplup here. He used his daughter in the experiments that were conducted on the island." Gray then looked at the officers. "I found a worker that bore a strong resemblance to a member of your clan."

"That is my sister Patricia. She thought it would be a great opportunity to work with the Company. Is she ok?" Gray shook his head no. He would not tell the man the fate of his sister till after he understood her condition more. "I.. see." Officer Brandow felt a p.r.i.c.k on his mind and let the guard down just a little.

'There are survivors. It will be a while before they can wake up. The place they are in will help make sure they live. Find a way to deal with it quietly. Found a few escape carts down below. You can use that for a cover.' Gray thought to him. Turning to the Muk, he shot off to deal with it. "A few 100 Grimer's how crazy it is still so large.

Several of the grinders of various colors trudged away. They looked at Gray and panicked. Seeing as the ok was available to go back in, the trainers were on the move again. The ones who lived on the island even more so.

"Grimer!" The pokemon just shuffled away from the Muk. They did not want to get eaten by it. Or to be precise, a.s.similated by it.

Several of the trainers actually started to catch the pokemon to save them. It was weird the number of pokeb.a.l.l.s that were piled up by the dock.

Gray relaxed his Poke soul and landed on the ground. Grabbing a pokeball he made, he threw it like a fastball at the Muk. "Wooos.h.!.+" The pokeball shot through the air like a comet. "Pat!" The Pokeball hit against the Muk and sucked it inside. "Bzzzt!" A surge of electricity circled the ball as the lock mechanism broke instantly from the strength of the pokemon.

'Your turn Crystal!' Gray thought to her. The freed Muk looked to be paralyzed and a bit frozen. 'Should have known it would not work the first go around. But the "trap ball" did paralyze and freeze it a bit.'

"You got it!" Crystal jump in the air from the s.h.i.+p. Doing a somersault, she kicked a pokeball. "Capture Shot!" Foot laced with aura power, Gray thought the pokeball would break from the impact.

"Koom!" The impact was like a cannon. One moment the ball was visible, the next it dissapeared from sight. "Pbltt!" Was heard next. The ball reappeared against Muk's forehead and sucked it inside.

"Grrrr!" Gray growled as he wrapped it up in his aura energy to fuel the pokeball to keep Muk contained.

"Woom! Woom!" To aura pulses and the pokeball turned black and white. Gray pulled it back to himself to apply more pressure just in case. The idea of wrapping it in duct tape came to mind!

"Chiss.h.!.+" The ball was hot. Even with his hands wrapped in aura energy.

"Ah!" Gray yelped from the burn. Looking at his skin, he watched his hand turn multicolored. The artificial aura was so concentrated, it burned him despite the confines of the pokeball. "Ughh this is not good." Feeling the rampant aura energy burn his flesh and bones, Gray created a psychic sword.

"Schlick!" The sword cut his arm at the elbow. He watched as the severed piece of arm deteriorated from aura poisoning. "Schlick!" He took care of the other as well.

"Never doing that again." Gray focused his blessings. "Raaah!" With a yell, a fresh arm grew instantly. Then the other one. "Haa... ha... d.a.m.n that is smarts." On his other hand, the black hexagon reappeared and glowed a little. "Yeah yeah, not gonna kill it. Just how do I separate this aura? I am not doing like last time. Do not need to get sick again."

"Did you just chop off your arm?" Crystal asked. "Both of them?" She ran up the moment she could. "And then you regrew it... are you a Pokemon Gray?"

"No.. maybe.." Gray said with a shrug. "Do not touch that Pokeball. It is so freaking toxic."

"Hup." Crystal pick it up with no problem. Her hand was literally made of crystal. "Yeah, my hands resist aura energy. Which is weird, since "this" is powered by aura."

"Learn something new every day." Gray said in awe. His face was in a slight frown. Trying to decide what to do with the Pokemon still. "Glad that worked for you. I did not want to help you regrow a limb."

"Hehehehe." Crystal chuckled. A wry look on her face. "I can drain it slowly if you want?" Gray nodded and walked over.

"Here, I might as well stabilize you like I did Silver." With a small pulse of Mewtwo's Blessing, Crystal felt stronger and in control of her aura. She even siphoned the pokeball a little better. "Find a good home for that Muk."

"I think I will keep it for myself." Crystal said with rosy cheeks. The aura from Gray made her feel giddy. "Buaaha the air tastes delicious." Her facial features were enough to make Gray forget the stress of the mission.

"Hey!" Clair yelled coming over. An Officer Jenny with a weird symbol around her neck and Sabrina followed along. "How is that Muk doing?"

"She has it now." Gray looked the woman over. "You look like a wild woman."

Clair hair was long and reached to her knees. Her body was taught with muscle. The orb she wore in the games was absent. Whether it was taken by the abductors or it was just gone, Gray did not know. The aura she had was quite wild still. With out Gray nearby, she might have went into a crazed state. Gray looked a little to long at Clair's chest. Making her upset upset and slightly proud.

"See something interesting?"

"Yeah. You have a nice body. It can defintely go through the paces. Gym Leader training must have done you well." Gray said plainly. He was talking about for fighting and as a sparring partner. "You need to get your aura under control."

"Grrrr!" Gray growled at Clair. His Giratina aura wrapping her up. "Stay back!" The PokeSoul information already in his mind working on its own. It tagedd her for it try. A voice in the air above whispered to Gray.

"Huh?" Clair looked a little apprehensive. She felt Gray's aura change her somehow. She could feel what was experimented on her, the fake Poke soul calm down. It was in fact not fake. But clashed with her actual Poke Soul she had inside. Not listening, Clair walked over to Gray, hands outstretched. "Do not fight it."

"Raaaawwwr!" A roar came from above and within Gray. A vague image of a Rayquaza shot down. However, this one was black. It landed on Clair creating a connection. She was in control of her mind again. No primal outbursts.

"You will serve well." Gray intoned. It came out forcefully and sounded nothing like him. Shaking, he almost collapsed as it pa.s.sed. "What the flying Jigglypuff was that?!" Clair was out cold squirming weirdly. A black gate Blessing was on her forehead before fading away.

"Mmm so good." Clair moaned. Gray felt a little conflicted at what he just done.

"What did you do to her!?" Sabrina asked. She picked the woman up and checked her over. "Eh, she is fine. In fact, her bruises are disappearing. you healed her. But this method is just weird." Brow furrowed, Sabrina kept checking over Clair just in case. 'd.a.m.n it, Clair, why did it have to be you? I never thought I run into you here. In fact, what the h.e.l.l are you doing here?' Sabrina focused more on her old-time friend. If Gray was paying attention, he would have noticed the concern was more than just old friends.

"Gray about before..." Officer Brandow said hesitating.

"Let me take over. Better to keep you from hating yourself later." Gray gave her a nod as a greeting. "I talked to the other officers while doing rescue procedures, things are very dirty here. The Piplup.. said the same thing. That man was her father. Few of the workers that were saved, also agreed with that statement. They didn't know what was happening they claimed however. A trial will be messy. And the bodies.. were destroyed according to the pokemon anyway. No, according to the kids I mean." She was very fl.u.s.tered. "I am Rescue Officer Abigal Jenny. Thank you an behalf of the island residents." Her outstretched reaching for Gray.

"Right, so you here to arrest me right?" Gray shook her hand and received a nod.

"Yeah I am. But funny thing, you flew away escaping arrest before I could cuff you." Abigal smiled.

"That sounds great. But the idea of turning into a fugitive sounds wrong. Besides, the Sobble and Piplup need some one to watch over them. Make sure the people from the Company do not work with miracle lawyers and get them back." Gray grabbed two Pokeb.a.l.l.s he had been working on. "These are still a work in progress. Sabrina and Crystal, you two should capture them."

"Eh why me?" Sabrina asked.

"You need a bigger Pokemon team." Gray smiled at her. "As for Crystal, I think her special condition can help with them growing strong enough to return to human state faster."

"Ohhh I understand!" Crystal said cheerfully. She just couldnt decide which one. The Pokemon decided for her. Sobble jumped at her.

"Please get me away from this crazy person!" Sobble was referring to Gray. Crystal kicked a pokeball like a hacky sack. It hit Sobble in the gut mid flight. "Oof." The little Sobble started to regret his decision.

"Guess it is me and you." Sabrina said. The Piplup nodded and let her capture it. "Huh?"

"Ding!" The pokeball turned into an pokeball. Gray smiled at the Realization. He looked to Crystal waiting to see if it would change. It did not.

"Hmm? Crystal, try letting your aura wash over it." Crystal did just that.

"Ding!" The pokeball matched Sabrina's a little. It to turned into an Expokeball.

'Large concentrations of aura energy as well as a lot of metal from the dungeons when I made. I am gonna need more it to make some. Glad the hypothesis worked. Need to send Profressor Oak the update and a "Thank You" for the notes.' Gray looked at Rescue Officer Abigal and smiled. "Ready when you are."

"Humph, arrested even after saving people. This is just wrong. Defintely gonna help make a stink about this." Clair said. "The Company will pay for kidnapping me." Clair was already back to normal. Her recover was scary.

"Please wait till after we sort things out." Abigal almost pleaded. It fell on dead ears however. "I will just detain you. No cuffs and you all need to come as well. Key witnesses in what happen."

Gray was happy for that. But he could'nt help feeling a dreadful sense of foreboding.

-Mystery Dungeon-

Gold found himself naked in a strange place. His pokeb.a.l.l.s were nowhere to be found. After a few blinks and time for adjustment, he was ok enough to move. Objects slowly materialised around him. His clothes first thankfully. Then his pokeb.a.l.l.s and backback.

"It was a success. Now where am I?" Thinking out loud the next thing to do was to set the transponder in his backpack. Before he did, a voice spoke to him. "Eh!?"

"A strong trainer.. good. Not a vessel.. even better." The voice sound weakened and pained. Looking down, Gold now knew he was actually on a pokemon.

"Go Togebo!" Gold released his Pokemon to get a better view. A very large Togekiss hovered to the side. Hoping on top he surfed on it to the front of whatever he was on. It took longer than he thought it would. 'Oh, man the Professor's are going to freak at this. Still no sign of Gary.'

"Your thoughts are not hidden from me child." The voice called. Gold noticed that the thing beneath him didn't move or vibrate. The voice was using pure aura projection. "You are quick.. that is good."

"Ok.. who are you and did a young man come before me?" Gold tightened his guard and was ready to fight.

"Many have come here." The voice said. "Many have perished. But you look for the one called Gary. He has gone." Gold felt immeidately sad. Jumping to the conclusion that Gary died. "He has left on an important task."

"Whew, thought he was a goner." Gold wiped his brow as he floated in front. "Holy freaking Milktank. You are ma.s.sive!" Staring at the large mountain of red plates and giant eyeball was one thing. Gold drifted back to see more of the Pokemon. "You.. are a .. Groudon. You are really injured. What happen to you?"

"I took my enemy lightly. Payed for it greatly. I need your help." The Groudon said reluctantly. The very idea of asking for help disgust it. Even after all this time. "The same as those before you, I must ask an impossible task."

"Oh yeah!" Gold cheered. This was the second reason he was here. "Let's get started." What Gold did not know was that he would be the last to try. Which meant the most difficult of tasks was for him to complete.

"Wooom!" The ma.s.sive Groudon shrunk to a small ball and entered Gold. His clothes were left alone. But not his body. Large lines of power formed on him. Primal markings followed by the Pokemon language burned into his skin.

"Beew!" Togekiss was forced back into a Pokeball. Gold was suspended in air as Groudon continue to change him from the inside.

"It is peaceful. So much knowledge." Gold mumbled. "You are not just a Groudon. You are something more. You name is weird."

'My name is Rafiel. The pain is about to start. Brace yourself.' Rafiel thought to him. His power was mostly to keep him alive now. 'I must rest now.'
