Tapu Bulu's Chime

                                      Liana's POV

Getting chased by angry Pikipek was not our plan when we arrived at Ula'ula Island. They squawked behind as indignantly as we fled. "You had to look," groaned Lillie, her voice puffed from the run. "They just...resemble Fletchling," I guessed I was a little homesick. She nodded sympathetically. "In the last two islands, both Island Guardians came to us. I think, since Tapu Bulu has a reputation for being lazy, that we have to find it this time," explained the blonde. I rolled my eyes. "It was a lot easier the last time," I muttered under my breath. We walked on, panting until we reached a less thick part of the forest where sunlight streamed through the tree branches and wrapped around us like warm fingers. "Tapu Bulu is a Grass-type," I reasoned. "So it is most likely somewhere with a lot of plants," she finished. "Not much of a hint, but at least it is one," I said with a sigh.

                              Third Person POV

A group of a young man, a pink-haired woman, a Meowth, and a Wobbuffet huddled closer to the bushes where they hid, listening to the two young girls discussing their past journey. "Did you hear that?" asked Jessie gleefully. "If we give those things to the boss, he'll surely promote us!" said James excitedly. "Too bad there's no Pikachu, but this is almost better," snickered Meowth. "Wobbuffet!" added the blue Pokemon. "Let's go!" they called.

                             Liana's POV

"Did you hear something?" I tilted my head to a group of rustling bushes. "What?" Lillie looked unfazed. I shook my head and we continued. Suddenly, another sound echoed through the forest, this time different. I charged forward, dragging Lillie with me, much to her protest. Eventually, we reached a part of the forest where there were practically no trees. The sound of a bell rang through the clearing and the rhythmic booms of a Pokemon. "Bulu, bulu, bulu!" it bellowed. "No," cried Lillie. I shushed her and beckoned forward. We saw the Island Guardian busy with a tree, which was frantically growing pink flowers. The sound of a chime rang through the clearing and I stifled a gasp, reaching into my pocket and bringing out my vial shakily. I imagined the sound drifting through my soul...and felt a weight in the flask. Inside was a greenish-pink liquid. "Already?" Lillie hissed. I was about to reply when my backpack was swept up into a huge vacuum machine. "Who's there?" I screamed. "Prepare for trouble, and make it double. To protect the world from devastation, to unite all people within our nation! To denounce the evils of truth and love, to extend our reach to the stars above! Jessie, James. Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light, surrender now or prepare for a liquidy fight! Meowth, that's right! Wobbuffet!" the four evildoers took turns reciting their motto, grinning madly. "Urgh!" I groaned. I took the shape of a Glaceon and used my sharp ears to their fullest. I felt the power rise inside me, and I shot forward in a Corkscrew Crash. The vacuum exploded into a million metal pieces, and my pack flew out, with the glass vials inside. I gasped in horror and caught it in a Psychic, then placed my new flask inside and slid it around Lillie's shoulders. I transformed into a Jolteon and let out a Thunder, electrocuting Team Rocket and launching them into the air. "Oh, no," mumbled Jessie nervously. "I know what's going to happen," said James. "Bewear!" a high voice called. A huge, pink Pokemon came and snatched them off, jumping on top of the trees. "We're off with a new blast!" their voices trailed off as they got farther away. Lillie sighed in relief. "Well, next is Poni Island," she said softly. I took a deep breath. "Yeah," I muttered. We're almost done, Ash. Hang on.

Hello, readers! Thank you for reading this chapter! I'm sorry if it's short, but the next one is Poni Island, the last one before (maybe) saving Ash! Thanks, and bye!
