JAMES' P.O.V.

I open my eyes, a little confused on why I'm not dead, and then I gasp once I realize what's happening.

Rayquaza, a Pokemon I became friends with a year before I moved to Ryme City, has just saved me from falling to my death.

"R- Rayquaza?!", I stutter.

"Hello James. It's nice to see you again.", Rayquaza says.

"It's nice to see you again too.", I say with a smile.

Rayquaza's eyes widen in shock.

"Y- you can understand me?!", Rayquaza says in surprise.

"I told you he could understand us now.", Mew says while crossing her arms.

Rayquaza snorts.

She never did like being corrected.

"So what's the deal with that Pokemon? Why'd he throw you out of the building?", Rayquaza asks.

"Long story short, that's Howard Clifford. He's somehow managed to possess Mewtwo's body. We've gotta figure out a way to severe their link.", I say.

Rayquaza smiles, ready to fight.

"So what do you need me to do?", Rayquaza asks.

"I need you and Mew to distract Howard while I go for Howard's actual body. He has a device on his forehead. I think that if I take it off of him, the link should be cut, thus forcing Howard back into his own body.", I say.

Mew and Rayquaza look at each other, and nod.

"Let's do it!", Rayquaza growls.

"We will buy you some time Master James!", Mew says.

"Good, thank you.", I say.

Rayquaza flies back towards the skyscraper, and I jump through the broken window I was thrown out of.

I manage to land on my feet without falling.

I see Tim and Pikachu fighting that lady from before.

'Wait a minute... that's not a lady! That's a Ditto!', I think.

Tim notices me standing here.

"James?!", he says in disbelief.

Pikachu turns his head towards me.

"Kid, are you alright?!", Pikachu says with obvious worry in his voice.

"I'm fine, where's Howard's body?", I ask.

Tim points over to his left, and then immediately gets slapped in the face by the Ditto.

Pikachu rams into the Ditto, causing it to flinch.

Tim takes his advantage, and starts punching and kicking the Ditto.

I see Pikachu actually biting the Ditto.

'That's gotta hurt.', I think for a moment.

I rush over to Howard's body.

Just as I'm about to reach his body, Rayquaza slams into the building, destroying everything around us.

I get underneath a table to avoid all of the falling debris.

The Ditto gets crushed by a large piece of the roof.

I look over at Tim and Pikachu.

They're also hiding underneath a table.

Pikachu is holding on to Tim tightly, and I even think Pikachu is screaming in a high pitched voice.
