~Team Xûl Airship Kobra~

Pluto was overflowing with confidence as he cracked his neck, "Darkrai...humbly serve them a taste of your new power!"

Darkrai didn't respond to the command of Pluto or any other commands after that. Pluto was flabbergasted at Darkrai's disobedience, embarrassed as it was happening in front of his enemies.

"You defy me?! The only person to assist you?! The only one that understands you!" Pluto shouted into the sky.

Darkrai examined his arms and looked over his new form, "you understand nothing."

Pluto was taken aback by Darkrai's statement. He looked around the ship at the eyes of everyone watching Darkrai make fool of him.

Pluto smirked, "you think I wasn't prepared for you to betray Team Xûl?!" The leader of Team Xûl tapped around his coat pocket but seemed like he couldn't find what he was searching for.

'Is he looking for the masterball?' Isaiah thought as he shot a worried look at Diamond.

"Where is the damn thing?!" Pluto's frustration started to get the better of him. He flicked back his trench coat and flashed the pokéballs on his waist belt.

Brent stepped away from the wheel, "let me help—"

Pluto put a hand up, "stay back, this is my responsibility as the leader of this organization."

Darkrai held out his right claw out, "then show me your power!"

Pluto looked at Brent and they both nodded in unison. Isaiah watched their weird exchange before Brent sprinted over to Alisha.

"Blaziken, use Flare Blitz on Mawile!"
"Noivern, DRACO METEOR!"

Blaziken crashed into the small steel-type covered in a blazing inferno. Mawile was blindsided by the sudden attack. Brent took advantage of the situation and twisted Alisha's arm behind her back, making her yelp in pain.

Noivern screeched and spread its wings, as boulders were seen falling from the sky, cloaked in dark blue and purple colored flames. With one hand, Darkrai rapidly shot out multiple bloodshot red Shadow Balls that pierced through every meteor. The attack from Mega Darkrai exploded and covered the airship in red mist.

"Tsk, use Flamethrower, Noivern. Gengar, Thunderbolt!"

Isaiah's anger sparked immediately at Brent's actions in harming Alisha.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Isaiah took a few steps forward and Brent backed up closer to the edge of the airship.

"I-Isaiah," she whispered.

The pain in her voice cut through him deeply, "you don't have to do this, Brent." Isaiah said calmly as he eased his way down the steps.

Pluto continued his battle against Darkrai in what sounded like a battle he wasn't winning, "urgh, Boomburst, and Gengar use Focus Blast!"
