Pokémon Soul

Chapter 11 - Breaking Surf

A fist coming from Kazuki's back suddenly appears, and with an insane amount of force, slams into the monster, breaking its exoskeletal skull. Grabbing its legs, the ghostly entity comes out of Kazuki's body, jumps up, and throws it. Kazuki looked back for a second to realize what was happening, but he instantly regretted it when he noticed a fist was an inch away from his body.

BOOM!

The impact of both Kazuki slamming down from the fist, and massivoon hitting the ground made a loud boom, causing all the Pokemon that were on the ice to to look at the impact.

BOOM!

And Kazuki's crabombinable finally hit the ground... The icy cloud cleared up, and a near-knocked-out Kazuki was visible. Kazuki had bruises all over his body, but he seemed to be okay. Kazuki's Lopunny, regenerated Grapploct, very scrawny Pangoro, and a ghostly red-eyed primate rush towards Kazuki, checking his condition. Looking back at Crabombinable, who seemed to of woken up during the fall, he sighed with relief and looked at the crater the bug formed in the ice. Oshawott waddled towards the crater and stared intensely at it, getting looks from everyone on the ice.

CRACKLE CRACK BOOM!

Massivoon smashes through ice beside them, specifically seeming to avoid the crater he made. Nobody was currently in the position to fight this thing, but the bug seemed more than ready to get into a rumble. The primate already used all of its energy into that punch, lopunny's leg was twisted, Grapploct just started to regenerate, Crabombinable was still out of it, pangoro was too scrawny to fight, Kazuki was exhausted, And Oshawott is Oshawott of course... The beast stomps on the ground angrily before using all four of its feet at once, sending icy splinters towards the team. Right before Massivoon was about to land a hit, a huge red beam suddenly melts the splinters, and a figure appears from the beam.

"With the power of the T-trum, red ranger!" Explosives appear from behind the Massivoon, causing red smoke to appear while the figure does an extremely odd pose.

"...Charles." Kazuki looks disapprovingly at Charles sitting on his butt and sliding toward him.

"I was gonna get Caiman but he wasn't home!"

"Kazuki Zhang, gym leader of Verdera, I entrust you with the power of the... Uh. Blue ranger...  Take this watch transformer, and say the key-wo-"

"I ALMOST GOT MYSELF KILLED AND YOU'RE COSPLAYING A POWER RANGER!" Kazuki says, slapping away the watch.

"Wrong. I AM A POWER RANGER!" More explosives roll out, and he does the pose again, melting even more of the ice. "Damn fit so fire the ice is melting!"

"Yeah, it wasn't the laser you just shot at that bug."

"Exactly!" When the smoke cleared, another set of explosives appeared, blowing up the massivoon and the ice, AGAIN. Before the figure could do another pose, Kazuki hit it on the head.

"MY MOTHERBOARD! IF IT'S BROKEN I'M GONNA BEAT YOU UP IN THE HOSPITAL!"

"Do one more pose and I'm gonna send you to one you fucking VR-bitch."

"Not what I meant. And I'm a hologram buddy." On it's digital face, nerd glasses appear. "According to my cackalashions you're gonna faint in 3... 2..." Kazuki drops onto the ground as his adrenaline wears off.

No longer distracted by the hole, Oshawott looks behind him to see the red ranger robotic figure, and a face of chagrin materializes as he screams. Oshawott heads towards the figure for some reason and starts running in circles around it.

"Since when did Oshawotts.." Confused, a contraption on his arm opens up, and two Pokeballs roll out. It takes both of them out and throws them at the bug who's literal charcoal by now and Oshawott. The one that went toward Oshawott hit him in the head and flung back at the android, catching it off guard while he caught it with one hand. It looked at the holographic screen and his eyes widened.

"Who's Daxon?"

"Malaki's kid."

"MALAKI'S?! OH, SHIT IM GONNA BE RICH."

"WE'RE HERE!" Daxon yells, sliding towards the three, his dad walking behind him.

The bot's attire suddenly swaps to a tuxedo in a bright flash. "Greetings my comrade. I seem to of made a discovery. This Oshawott seems to of been misplaced if I recollect correctly. I am proud to proclaim that I have single-handedly deciphered this enigma! I prefer payment online."

"Kazuki found him," Charles says, covering it's speakers.

"You bitch!"

"OSHAWOTT?!" Daxon screams, shocked.

"OSHA?!" Oshawott screams, tearing up.

"OSHAWOTT!!" Daxon exclaims, putting his arms out for a hug.

"SHAAA!!" Oshawott exclaims, putting his arms out for an embrace

"OSHAWOTTT!!" Daxon yells, squatting down.

"OSHASHAA!" Oshawott yells, using watergun to propel him up.

"OSH- OOF!" Oshawott jumps onto Daxon's head and over to his father. Embracing him tightly. Daxon mumbles and rolls his eyes.

"Exactly what I thought." Daxon groans, looking at Charles dissapointedly. 

...

"Wait a minute. Did he just use a move?" Daxon and his dad stare at each other for a minute bewildered, and both look at Oshawott. He looked less thin, was moving fine, and had a lot of energy.

"Is this not just some random Oshawott?" Daxon asks, but both Kazuki and the android were already gone. Daxon sighs and examines Oshawott further. He takes out a Pokeball from his pocket and presses the button, sucking Oshawott in. "It's... Him." Daxon grows a huge grin and smiles at Charles. "Thank you, guys, for everything."  Charles nods and takes out his phone.

"Shit. I gotta go home, Kazuki's probably gonna be at the hospital... Pay us back by going to the event, alright?" He replies, winking while running away. Daxon waves and looks at the Pokeball again.

"Is it just me, or does something feel off?" Daxon asks. "This felt too easy?"

"Don't jynx us now." His dad responds, playfully elbowing his shoulder. "Come on, let's go home."

"Yeah, you're right..." Daxon and his dad walk off the ice, talking about everything. Daxon didn't notice it but his dad seemed a bit distracted, and his eyes weren't focused on him.

"Why is it so humid and hot? Isn't it fall?" Daxon asks, wiping sweat off his forehead.

"No clue what you're talking about bud."  His dad responds, weirdly loud.

"VOLCAAAA!"

"POTS POTS POTS POTS!! YROSS MI!!

"Okay, I heard something." Daxon tries to look back but his dad walks behind him.

"If dinners cold I choose the movie."

"Okay okay!" Daxon answers, running to his dad's car.

MEANWHILE...

"Have you guys heard of hygiene? It stinks in here!"

"What'd you say?"

"Hygiene, conditions or practices conducive to maintaining health through cleanl-"

"I KNOW WHAT HYGIENE IS! Oh, my *muffle* you're annoying. It doesn't stink out here it's probably just that juice we put in there."

"Juice? This tastes like shit!"

"WHY ARE YOU DRINKING IT?!"

"Bored."

"Thank god it's just one more day until the cryosleep capsule is ready."

"Cryosleep? We are NOT playing Pokimworld."
