I know this is the title for a Mystery Dungeon chapter, but I think its a really good title for this chapter though. I own no Pokemon or whatever and enjoy my peepz/loyal readers. And sorry for not being around for a few weeks but I didn't have any motivation and I just finished finals so I'm free for the summer! I also can't wait for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire as well! ^.^

Crimson and I walked along the docks until we reached a worn down house. We stood in front of the door and I rapped on it a few times and waited. The door opened and an old man, who was really tall and had a Wingull on his shoulder, came out.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"I'm Sapphire, and this is Crimson. If you are Mr Briney then could you give us a ride to Dewford Town?" I asked.

"Well of course. I'll get some supplies and Peeko here can show you where my boat is."

"Yes I can so follow me!" Peeko said as she took off.

Mr Briney went back inside and Crimson and I dashed after Peeko to the pier with a small boat at the end. It looked really nice and it actually was bigger than I thought, enough to have a deck underneath the boat and a big open stop on it too. Peeko landed on top of it and cried, "Here it is! Enjoy the boat ride for as long as you can until you get seasick!"

"Seasick?! I don't want to get seasick!" Crimson cried.

"Well, we'll just have to deal with it then," I said.

It wasn't much longer until Mr Briney came with some supplies.

"It looks like Peeko has taken a bit of a liking to you Sapphire," he chuckled.

"Mr Briney? How long will it take for us to get to Dewford Town?" I asked.

"After nightfall, but I hear there's a storm coming so it could be even longer."

"Great. An easier way to get seasick," Crimson groaned.

I ignored that and picked her up off the ground. Mr Briney then lowered the gangplank and I followed him onto his boat. I walked over to the deck where there wasn't anything, not even a chair at that, and let everyone else out.

"Port to starboad! Peeko, fly on ahead if you would!"

The boat jerked and then we started moving away from the dock. I saw Peeko fly on ahead of us out to sea and I spotted a lot of water types and flying types out in the distance.

"The Dewford Gym is next, so I geuss we should get training guys."

"On the boat?!" Paige exclaimed.

"Of course! Where else would we train?" Crimson pointed out.

I nodded my head and then went to find Mr Briney to ask if my Pokemon and I could train on his boat. It wasn't long until I found the room where he was steering the boat in.

"Mr Briney? Is it alright if my Pokemon and I train here on you boat?" I asked.

"Of course. Just don't fall off."

"Okay, thank you."

I left the room and went back to where everyone was waiting for me.

"We have until at least nightfall to train which should plenty of time for us."

"Good! So let's get training!" Kipz said.

"Right! So Crimson, I think we should train you in learing a new move that might help and Paig, we should work more on your defensive moves. Our battle against Shelly helped me learn a lot about us as a team guys. Crimson, if you learned Counter that might come in good use and Paige, if you could get better with your defenses with String Shot then our training will pay off. Also, Kipz, if we can get your speed up then your Double Team will get faster. So let's do this!"

"Yeah!" they all cheered.

So our training began and right at sundown everyone had mastered their new moves or teniques. Just as we were about to eat Peeko came back looking all scared. Behind her I saw a group of wild Pokemon, that some I'd never seen before, were flying or swimming away. They consisted of Seadra, Wailmer, Wailord, Azumarill, Swellow, Altaria, and Murkrow. Out in the distance I saw very dark clouds starting to cover up the sunset. It looked like a storm was coming, but who knows when it could hit us.

My Pokemon and I along with Peeko ate our food quickly just before the winds started whipping up and the ocean started getting to be very wild. Mr Briney came onto the deck and returned Peeko to her Poke Ball.

"You should get underneath the deck Sapphire. Return your Pokemon to your Poke Balls before the storm gets any worse."

He ran back inside as I quickly returned everyone back to their Poke Balls. I started walking but the boat jerked when it hit a wave and sent be flying to one side of the boat. I stood up just as the the boat hit another wave and I fell overboard.

The cold, raging, water engulfed me as I was dragged underneath its force. The seawater made my leg sting where I was attacked earlier and the current was just to strong to even swim with it when I tried treading water. My head finally popped up above the water's surface, but before I could take in some air a huge wave engulfed me and filled my mouth with seawater. It was all salty and it tasted disgusting. My head popped above the surface again but I was dragged underneath the ocean before I could take in any air.

I really didn't know how long it had been but I finally was able to get some air.

"Help!" I called even though it was no use.

No one was out here, the boat was gone, and the wind and waves swallowed up my voice anyways. Was it the end of my journey? Just then I felt something garb me, like talons of some sort. Someone was here to save me, but who? I coughed up some seawater before I was lifed upwards. My vision was blurry but I knew it was a flying Pokemon, and a big one at that. Then I felt someone grab me out of the talons and set me down on the Pokemon's back right next to them. I tried opening my eyes but I was too weak.

"Hey, are you alright?" the person asked.

The voice sounded familiar, but where did I hear it from? I couldn't answer that because when I tried opening my eyes again my world went black.
