Welcome to Gaia! ::

Allen studied the depictions and finally ruled that they were just a story all along. He sighed, and continued on, ignoring the markings moving on up and through the hallways. He caught up to the rest of them just as Maddy offered the turn back option. Allen didn't even consider it for a moment, "In it to win it. My Pokemon and I are ready for anything." He gave a thumbs up. Then he noticed his bag had been vibrating as well, he quickly retrieved the artifact from his bag.

Dark sends out his Clauncher, Bass, and hands him a Lucky Egg. He then sends out Brick, his Pupitar, who is also clutching a Lucky Egg.
"Bass, use Water Pulse on Groudon! Brick use Rock Slide on Kyogre!"
The two Pokemon begin attacking the legendaries. They then begin dancing around, making silly sounds and just being really loud.
"Good work guys... Just a little bit longer..." Dark keeps his eyes on the sky. He didn't wan to get caught in some kind of Legendary Cross-fire.

Cody nodded, shouting to Archie.
"You can't fire us if you're not our leader!" he shouted, pulling Fraxure's ball from his belt and sending it into the midst of everything.
The ball exploded in a flash of white light, releasing the small dragon pokemon who scurried off to distract Maxie's legendary monster. Cody nodded to Archen who took off in Kyogre's direction. Cody shouted after his pokemon. "Don't get hit by any of their attacks! They're super strong and their attacks are devastating!"
The ancient flute shook even harder as the two pokemon of legend stood before him. The braille glowed brighter, pulsing with white light as the two pokemon fought.

Gabite smashed the ground hard, causing the tower to shake beneath Groudon's feet. He was hoping to topple the larger Pokemon.
Fraxure used Dragon Pulse, aiming for Kyogre's eyes.
The efforts of all the Pokemon combined left their four foes nice and preoccupied.

Maddy made her way to the middle of the pillar while they were distracted. A pedestal stood before her, a large circular indent in it. Words of an unknown language were engraved all over it. She reached into her backpack and brought out the Green Orb, the object shining beautifully. As it was brought closer to the pedestal, it began to pulsate with an emerald green light. The engravings on the pedestal responded in the same way.

The green light caught Archie's eye.
"Wait, what is that?! Green Orb?! NOOO!"
He whipped around to Kyogre.
"GET HER!" He screamed, pointing at Maddy.

Maxie, on the other side of the platform, was reacting to the Green Orb the same way. He was barking orders at Groudon.

For the moment, both Legendaries had ceased their fighting and were flying at Maddy with the intention of stopping her.

The girl smirked.
"Your Legendary Pokemon are useless."
She slammed the Green Orb down into the indent on the pedestal. There was a bright green flash (Maddy suddenly leaped backwards, clutching at her left eye) and all the crazy weather surrounding them ceased. The sun dimmed slightly, and the dark clouds behind Kyogre dissipated. Both Legendary Pokemon stopped in their tracks and turned their heads towards the sky above them.
The clouds high above parted and a giant, green, serpentine dragon descended down from the heavens. It's eyes were the color of gold and it had markings of the same color all over it's body. It had several red-tipped, rudder-like wings covering it's body, starting at the shoulders and working their way down to the tip of it's tail. Long flat horns decorated it's head, and it only had two appendages, which were arms.
Rayquaza came to rest floating a few feet above the tower's surface. It looked at the other two Legendary Pokemon and let out a ferocious roar. Sky Pillar shook violently.

Both Kyogre and Groudon abandoned their current masters, fleeing the tower.

Archie stared up at the massive dragon, flabbergasted.
"So the dragon really does exist..."
He clenched her fists and tore his gaze from the dragon to stare angrily at Team Aqua.
"How dare you--!"

Maxie looked between Rayquaza and Team Aqua, nervously. He then turned tail and ran, letting a Talonflame out of a Pokeball and flying off. The grunts that were with him scattered, quickly fleeing the tower as well.

Maddy was on her knees now, clutching her eye still. A bit of blood trickled between her fingers.
"Surround him. Don't let Archie escape!" She called to her comrades.

*I quickly surround the two 'bosses'*
Me: Kyogre would've been a fun catch. Sorry boss. But this was getting out of line.

"Yeah! But this is getting really hard to hold!" Just then it stopped as Rayquaza decended. So majestic... He also noticed his flute had stopped behaving so violently, now it was a steady, but still strong, vibration and a faint glow.
Allen caught hold of Maddy's orders and tossed another Pokeball, "Lynda, Shadow Sneak!" His upper lip curled and Lynda shot out faster than the eye could follow bashing the Talonflame in the rear knocking it off balance and she moved in from, making an extremely frightening face at the bird. It actually flinched away from Lynda and move back to the tower.

*I look at my former colleague with a smirk*
Me: Archie had interesting plans, but really, why stay?
AA: Because I have loyalty.
Me: Do you think he's loyal to you?
AA: He's loyal to his plan!
Me: Shut up. Sharpedo, go!
*Sharpedo appears from his PokéBall, and then looks at me confused*
AA: Crawdaunt, come on out!
*The giant crayfish appears*
Me: Well, this is great. Only one option here. Earthquake!
*Sharpedo hits the ground hard, doing damage to Crawdaunt*
AA: Swords Dance.
*Crawdaunt methodically moves its claws to increase its attack*
Me: Fun... Well, keep on going.
*Sharpedo hits the ground again, and Crawdaunt is starting to look bad*
AA: Brick Break.
*A sharp attack at Sharpedo quickly takes him down, and the rough skin hurts it*
Me: Sharpedo, return! Ghastly go!
*A purple mist forms as the shark disappears*
Me: Energy Ball!
*Plant energy is summoned and then sent into Crawdaunt, KOing it*
AA: Starmie go!
*The double star Pokemon appears*
Me: OK...
AA: Psychic!
*A distortion of energies barely leaves Ghastly hanging on*
Me: Destiny Bond.
*Ghastly combines its life force with Starmie's*
AA: Again... CRAP!
*Starmie again attacks Ghastly, and as Ghastly goes down, so does it*
AA: Tricky. Tentacruel go!
*The jellyfish Pokémon appears*
Me: Kadabra, take Ghastly's place.
*I recall Ghastly, and my Psychic type comes out*
Me: Psyshock.
*Kadaba hits the core of Tentacruel, doing great damage*
AA: Surf!
*A big wave comes at Kadabra, doing good damage, but not enough to scare me*
Me: Finish it.
*The shock in the core takes Tentacruel down*
Me: Game, set, match.

Allen turned back to Archie, he'd actually nearly forgotten about him and his handful of Team Aqua Members he surrounded himself with. One called him out by name, "Allen! I've read all up on you. I know why Archie picked out, and I knew that you were a spineless punk the moment I heard about your little escape from Lum-" Allen's face had gone through a multitude of colors, blue, white red, white again. He'd clinched his teeth and shouted for the other man to shut up a few times before the burst that interrupted him.
"SHUT UP!! Shut up!" Allen cried, "CECIL! CRUSH HIM WITH PSYCHIC!!" Allen growled almost inhumanly, Cecil jumped at Allen's command but followed through, bringing two waves of psychic energy to try to take hold of the Aqua Admin.
"Hup!" He'd tossed a ball into the air, revealing a Crawdaunt. The crustacean opened it's pincers wide, letting them become engulfed in a dark black energy. The Night Slash energy was enough to block out the Psychic attack. "I see." His eyes narrowed, locking onto Allen's eyes.

"Cecil, take a break." He recalled the Reuniclus and pulled up another Pokeball. "Ecrelys!" Allen called out his Kabutops! Ecrelys looked back to his trainer, he'd apparently felt the anger and fear running through Allen's mind. "Ecrelys! Use X-Scissor!" Ecrelys whipped around to find the Crawdaunt lunging for him a closed pincer pulled far back, ready to use Brick Break. The Kabutops crossed his scythes, running ahead at full speed and leaping high into the air. His scythes glowed a bright green color, leaving streaks through the air. Crawdaunt stopped short swinging it's massive claw around, the two attacks meeting to create a massive explosion. The Crawdaunt had been able to brace itself for the impact, and only slid back a few feet, but still took heavy damage. Ecrelys went soaring, clattering against the ground to a stop, taking massive damage as well. "Ecrelys! Stone Edge!" The Kabutops slashed into the tower beneath him, the first swift blow cutting a small chunk out of the building, the second tossing it into the air. A final slash sent the sharpened stone flying through the air and right at the enemy Crawdaunt.

Crawdaunt threw up it's pincers to defend itself, a couple smaller chunks of the stone tower simply bounced from the defending Pokemon, but the larger chunk few in at just the right angle and jab into the arm of the Crawdaunt. It roared in pain, feeling a rapidly spreading numbness through it's arm and into it's claw. The Admin called for a Brick Break again, but Crawdaunt staggered for a moment before falling over, unable to continue. "Hmph." The Admin sounded before returning his pokemon, "Impressive..." He frowned and pulled another Pokeball from seeming nowhere and launched it into the air. Revealing an off color Porygon-Z, the air around the Pokemon shimmered for a moment, telling Allen it was a shiny Pokemon. "Some simple recoding, nothing a laptop can't handle." The man shrugged, causing Allen to sigh in annoyance. "Very well. Porygon, Execute a Thunderbolt!" The Pokemon twitched and jerked for a moment then whirred to life charging a huge amount of electricity into it's appendages and firing all three at the same time. The bolt of electricity shot through Ecrelys, leaving him on the ground and severely injured. He didn't even try to get up again before Allen returned him.

"Great job, Ecrelys. Ubella, give'em what for!" He tossed the Volcarona's Pokemon into the air, "Quiver Dance!" He called, knowing she'd be a bit faster. She spun around a few times, dancing gracefully through the air. He wings glowed a bright greenish yellow the more she danced.
"Stop it's dancing with a Tri Attack!" The Admin called to his Pokemon, which twitched around a little pooling Fiery energy into one of it's paddle-like arms, Icy energy into another and Electric energy into the bottom. It fired they all at the same time, the trio forming a triangle. Fortunately, Ubella finished her dance with just enough time to take the attack significantly better than she would have previously.
"Ubella, use Bug Buzz!" The Volcarona spread her wings wide, vibrating them loudly. The sound buzzed through the air and came as a shock to the foe. It whirred loudly, like a laptop's cooling fan kicking on.
"Pory," The admin's voice was now much more panicked than before, "Another Tri Attack!" He was trying to get a status effect on Volcarona, but it was ultimately ineffective. The attack flew off but Ubella shrugged the hit.
"Ubella! Fiery Dance!" She nodded and raced off, the tips of her wings burning brightly, leaving streaks of burning hot energy in her wake. She circled rapidly around the Porygon-Z, the air surrounding the two turning red until finally a thin tornado of fire erupted from the tower, incinerating the foe. Porygon-Z fell to the ground and Ubella's body glowed a bright red for a moment.

The Admin flinched, not expecting his star Pokemon to go down so easily, "Fine, Kingra! Take it out with a Hydro Pump!" His voice was unsteady, but still controlled. Allen finally gave a smile, noticing the wavering in the opponent's voice.
"Ubella, Bug Buzz again!" Ubella closed in on the Kingdra, rapidly vibrating her wings again, shooting the sound waves through the air the shake the Kingdra hard. Kingdra hit the ground hard and tumbled to a stop in front of it's trainer. It was obviously already close to fainting, just barely hanging on to consciousness.
"Kingdra, use your Hydro Pump like I said!!" The Admin shouted, "Noowwww!!!" Kingdra gathered all the energy it could into getting itself into position to fire the massive spray of water. The blast of water shot forward, but Ubella flapped her wings once, easily moving out of the way. She flew around the geyser of water once and flapped her wings once, summoning a Hurricane force wind to blast the Kingdra across the ground again. Kingdra couldn't take it anymore, it fainted quickly.

The Admin returned his Pokemon, "You've messed with the wrong people!" he called to Allen as he ran away to hide near Archie.
