Mixturing Moves

Chapter 20: The Truth and the Escape Part 3.

(Author's note: This is a very long chapter, everyone. Like this ends at page 32. When me and my pal was done editing this on google doc. So...have plenty of freetime to read this son of a gun. Also, 32 pages will be my page limit for future chapters because of this. Without further ado, enjoy.)

Cloyster Kingdom Arc.

The castle finishes crumbling down and tearing apart, building structures from every angle turning into nothing but piles of mesh-mashed concretes. Over by one of the piles, Iris, Jimmy and Zeke shrug the pieces of white concrete off from their backs while grunting. The three then look at Norah and the others to see that they're still in one piece, Cerise panting heavily as blood runs slowly from his nose. Glad to see that Cerise and the others are fine. Iris thinks before turning towards her right, looking at another structure from a distance. She sees Mat and Exo shrugging off the pieces themselves, making sure that Cocoon and the other three are in good shape. She also hears Anna's voice and turns to her side, seeing her groan while on top of Ashen as she shakes the concretes off herself. Looks like everyone isn't too badly damaged from the collapsing. Good.

Mat turns toward Iris and the others, floating by their side immediately while carrying Cocoon. "Norah!" He exclaims, worriedness spreading throughout his face like a plague. Norah looks at Mat weakly, smiling softly.

"Oh Mat...You're always a warmth to my heart whenever I see you..." Norah says softly, whimpering afterwards.

"I-It's going to be okay, Norah. We'll get you out of this mess alive." As Mat comforts the female Cloyster, Cocoon stares at her, seeing the blood beginning to spread throughout her face and her gasping in a raspy, dying tone. The king grimaces at the imagery, closing his eyes and shaking his head in grief.

Zeke soon hears something and blinks. "Hmm?" He says, turning his attention towards another pile of structure a bit next to Mark and the others. He notices the structure moving forward slightly, some pieces falling off and landing on the ground. "Hey guys! I'm seeing something moving from that pile over there!" The Cloyster points, leading the others to look as well.

The structure continues to move for a moment until a fist goes through the structure, causing the pile to completely collapse. Azure yelps from the structure being demolished as dust forms around it. After the dust fades away, it reveals Trent and Sheer; Trent brushes himself off while Sheer eyes the group in a deadly manner, seeing them become tense and uneasy. "Well that was something I didn't expect." Trent says before wiping the concrete off from Sheer's shell.

Sheer nods firmly. "Yes. I didn't expect the attack to cause the castle to perish." Sheer replies back, closing his eyes. "...Maybe that might've been a Pokemon move, after all." He then looks back at the others along with Trent, Trent eyeing them deadly while still in his Mega form.

"Well well well. Ain't you guys lucky to survive that, huh?" Trent grins deviously, putting his fist against his paw.

Iris stares sternly at the Mega Lucario. "Yeah. I'd like to say the same for you as well." Iris answers, her fist being engulfed in flames during so. Sheer then lifts his face up in a judging manner, floating forward and eyeing at the group severely.

"This is it. You insignificant, ruthless Swinubs have managed to sabotage my plans and ruin the castle. Are you satisfied with the damage you've caused onto this kingdom, now?" Sheer questions, glancing at the crew.

Cocoon glances back at Sheer. "No. You're the one that caused the damage here, Sheer." Cocoon responds.

"Even though I wasn't the one that used the move that collapsed the castle?"
