Rayman Legends Adventures in Pokémon Movie 5: Latias and Latios/Script

Thumbelina noticed how her cousins usually had their own Pokemon moments in their adventures, but little did she know, this next one was going to involve her in the same case. She was sitting alone on the swing-set in Belle and Adam's backyard as Mismagius kept her company.
"You alright," Mismagius asked.
"Oh, just thinking..." Thumbelina said.
"What about," Mismagius asked.
"I wonder if I matter in these Pokemon adventures..." Thumbelina sighed, "Charlie went to meet Ash and the others first and become a Chosen One, Carrie was with Molly during the Spell of the Unknown, and even Eloise had to help Celebi against the Iron Masked Marauder..."
"Your time will come," Mismagius said.
"I hope so, Mismagius...." Thumbelina sighed as she gently swung back and forth.
"We should go see your cousins," Mismagius suggested.
"Alright..." Thumbelina replied as she jumped off the swing to warn her parents where she was going.
Mismagius followed after her.
"Mum...Dad..." Thumbelina came to see her parents as she carried her Pokemon in her arms, "can we go see my cousins?"
"Of course, Thumbeline," Colbert grinned.
"Alright, I see nothing wrong with that," Tabitha added.
"Thank you," Thumbelina grinned to her parents.
"That should help cheer her up," Mismagius grinned to Thumbelina's happiness.
Soon they went to see the Rowling family.
Emelius hummed as he read his newspaper and saw that a museum had been robbed and what confused him was that a book had been stolen from there.
"Did they steal any paintings," Price asked her husband as she washed the dishes while the children were in the backyard with their Pokemon.
"No, just a book," Emelius replied.
"A book," Price asked, "seriously?"
"Must be a reluctant book like a manuscript..." Emelius replied.
"Does it say who did it," Price asked.
"According to security, all that was left behind was a single red rose," Emelius noted.
"A red rose," Price asked out of confusion.
"It can't be Cornelius...he's a nice guy...." Emelius tried to think of who would do this.
"Perhaps it was the Enchantress who cursed Prince Adam," Price tried to joke to lighten the mood.
"It can't be James, he's no longer a Team Rocket member," Emelius said.
"Same with Jessie....." Price agreed, "perhaps we should warn the children."
"Yes, this is a Pokemon book..." Emelius nodded.
They came into the backyard as their kids were training their Pokemon.
"Get him off! Get him off! He's so cute and fluffy," Larvitar cried out in despair as Teddy had tackled him.
"Don't worry, help is coming," Charlie called out.
Carrie chuckled, it was kind of cute of Teddy attacking Larvitar.
"Oh, nothing much here, but the 'children' are training their Pokemon..." Paul said as he was on the phone with Jenny, "everyone says hi."
"Let me speak to her! Let me speak to her," Vulpix jumped up and down.
"OK, that's it," Paul laughed a little before bending down to Vulpix.
"Hiiii, Mama," Vulpix grinned.
"Hello there, Vulpix," Jenny's voice chuckled.
"Hi, Jenny," Charlie and Carrie grinned.
"Hi, Aunt Jenny," Larvitar and Teddy called out.
"My, I certainly am popular," Jenny chuckled as she was putting on nail polish on Georgette, "what are you guys up to? I'm getting Georgette ready for a dog show."
"That's grand," Paul grinned.
"Yes, the past years she's been with us, Mum and Dad always entered her, but this year, they decided I'm mature enough to put her in," Jenny replied.
"Send pictures, Paul's dying to see you in a swimsuit," Carrie cut in jokingly.
"Hey," Paul frowned.
This caused everyone to laugh.
"Oh, oh, oh," Charlie jumped onto Paul's back, "make it a bikini!"
"Guys," Paul turned bright red as he tried to speak with Jenny on the phone.
Jenny just chuckled out of amusement as she did Georgette's nails. "You guys..."
"Oh, Jenny, it's almost time," Georgette said.
Jenny looked at the time and got back on the phone. "Guys, I must go, I'll speak to you later, alright?"
"Well, farewell, Jenny, good luck in the show," Paul said before hanging up before he and Jenny would go at it for a while.
"Larvitar, try to get free," Charlie warned the rock-type Pokemon.
Soon Larvitar picked up Teddy over his head and set him down on the ground before rolling toward Charlie's feet.
"Are you children busy," Emelius grinned as he came out to see his children as he carried the paper in his arm.
"Just a sec, Daddy," Carrie said before looking to her Teddiursa, "alright, Teddy, use your Fury Swipes!"
Soon Teddy ran towards Larvitar with his claws glowing. Larvitar began to try to block.
"Hee-yah," Teddy swiped against Larvitar.
"Larvitar, use Dig to dodge," Charlie warned him.
Soon Larvitar dug into the ground. Emelius checked other parts of the paper while waiting for the kids to complete up where they could speak. In the end, it was a tie for both Larvitar and Teddy as their last attacks collided. Then the two bowed together like kung-fu trainers as they ended their battle.
"Alright, Dad, what's up," Charlie grinned.
"Your mother and I were hoping you could shine some light on this," Emelius handed him the newspaper about the museum robbery.
Soon Charlie read the newspaper article. Carrie and Paul joined his sides as they looked at the newspaper.
"Security says they only found a red rose after a book was stolen," Price warned her children as she went back in the kitchen to make grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch.
"Huh...this is strange," Paul said.
"It can't be Tuxedo Mask..." Carrie commented about the red rose, "he's best friends with Andrea Framm."
"I doubt it's him, but it really is mysterious," Atticus nodded, "it says here the rose also came with a photograph of two different colored kiss marks on it and the book they stole had information on where Latios and Latias are."
This caused the Rawling twins to gasp in shock.
"Are these the Pokemon," Price asked as she stirred a pot of cheese.
"Yes, they are legendary Pokemon," Charlie warned his mother.
"Oh, like Entei," Price asked.
"Yes," Charlie and Carrie nodded together.
"Well, I guess this means you have to go then," Price replied, "now we just have to----"
There was a knock at the door and Emelius opened it to see Tabitha.
"Thumbelina is feeling lonely," Tabitha warned her childhood best friend.
"Oh, then please do come in," Emelius said.
Then Tabitha walked in with her daughter as she yet carried Mismagius in her arms.
"Nice evening, Uncle and Auntie..." Odette bowed to Emelius and Price.
"Thumbelina, you're just in time," Carrie grinned.
"Oh...yes," Thumbelina cheered before looking curious, "...for what?"
"Another Pokemon adventure," the Ralts twins grinned.
"Oh..." Thumbelina replied softly.
"What's wrong," Paul asked her.
"It's just...you guys need to have big parts in the past adventures..." Thumbelina sighed, "I may have Mismagius, but you don't need me."
"Yes, we do so," Charlie said.
"Huh..." Thumbelina frowned softly as she stared at the floor.
"Hold up," Price warned the others, "before anyone goes anywhere, you need lunch and I'm making grilled cheese."
"Yes," the children grinned before Charlie's eyes glowed.
"Oh, boy, here we go..." Charlie said.
Emelius picked up Charlie and sat him down while he was going to have a vision.
Later, the four crept up in the Pride Lands. They hid behind rocks and peeked out. They saw Pride Rock guarded by hyenas sleeping lazily.
"Hyenas," Timon moaned. "I hate hyenas," he whispered to Simba, "then what's your plan for getting past these guys?"
"Live bait," Simba simply responded.
"Nice idea," Timon whispered. He realized what he meant and yelled a Big Shut Up.
"C'mon, Timon. You guys need to create a diversion," Simba whispered.
"What do you want me to do? Dress in drag and do the hula," Timon asked.
Drums played, getting the hyenas' attention. Timon spun around, wearing a hula skirt, flower necklace and lei in his head. Pumbaa was on a plate like a roast pig.
Timon: Luau!
If you're hungry for a hunk of fat
And juicy meat
Eat my buddy Pumbaa here
Because he has a treat
C'mon down and dine
On this tasty swine
All you have to do is get in line
Timon saw the hyenas walking up to them hungrily. Timon continued as he sang.
Timon: Are you aching?
Pumbaa: Yes, sir.
Timon: For some bacon?!
Pumbaa: Yes, siree.
Pumbaa winked while singing, signaling Simba and Nala to sneak past, which the two did so.
Timon: He's a big pig
Pumbaa: Yes, sir.
Timon: You can be a guardian, as well
Oi!
Then the two shrieked and ran off with the hyenas chasing them.
Charlie blinked and rubbed his eyes as he awakened from his vision.
"Well...how's the future," Paul folded his arms with a small smirk, "not that I would know or anything~"
"Thumbelina, you are certainly going to be reluctant on this adventure," Charlie said.
"You're just saying that to make me feel better," Thumbelina pouted.
"No, I'm not," Charlie replied, "Scout's Honor."
Soon Thumbelina looked to Mismagius, who nodded with a grin.
"Before you guys go, you must eat your lunch," Price grinned as she served the grilled cheese.
"Alright, we'll eat lunch, but soon, my gut warns me we must get to Alto Mare," Charlie said.
"Agreed," Carrie said.
Then they all sat down together to eat some lunch.
After eating their grilled cheese sandwiches, they were ready to leave.
"There they go...off on their little adventure..." Price sighed.
"It's alright, Price," Emelius consoled her.
Soon the children and their Pokemon were on their road to the Johto region and soon where they teleported to where Ash and the others were.
Emi chuckled as she was surrounded by the water Pokemon, who seemed to enjoy her company very much.
"Hey, hey, hey, stop smelling her," Charlie walked over.
Soon the Pokemon settled down and looked to him.
"Charlie," Emi grinned.
"Hi, Emi," Charlie blushed.
"Oh, I missed you so much," Emi hugged him right away and let go as she looked into his sapphire eyes, "you must've heard about the races."
"Actually, I saw it in my vision," Charlie hugged her back.
"Well...it's nice to see you," Emi grinned to him.
"It's nice to see you as well," Charlie grinned. "You sure seem popular with the Pokemon," he said once he saw the Pokemon who came to meet Emi.
"I guess it's from finding out my destiny to become a Pokemon Princess," Emi grinned back.
Soon the Water Pokemon trainers called for them to come back.
"Phew," Emi said in relief.
"I just know Misty will enjoy this event," Charlie grinned as this was a water Pokemon competition.
"Yes, oh, and did you know me and her both caught a Corsola," Emi asked.
"A Corsola," Charlie asked back with a grin, "that sounds beautiful."
"Oh, they are," Emi grinned before seeing what time it was.
Charlie looked with her.
"It's time to get started," Emi warned him, "wish us luck."
"I will," Charlie grinned.
Soon everyone went their separate fashions to get ready for the races. Soon Teddy sniffed a familiar feline Pokemon scent. Vulpix bent down and picked up a banner in his mouth and waved it.
"Do you guys smell that," Teddy asked.
"Smell what," Mismagius replied.
"It's Meowth," Teddy grinned as soon as he ran away to find the feline Pokemon.
"Does anyone got any popcorn or something," Meowth asked, "I'm starving!"
"Hang on; I think I have something," Jessie said.
"Huuurrryyyy up," Meowth begged before he got tackled, "hey! What's the big idea?"
"Hi, Meowth," Teddy grinned down to the feline Pokemon.
"Hey, jocko, what are you doing here," Meowth grinned back.
"Mama, Charlie Rawlins, Paul Rawlins and Thumbelina and I came to visit," Teddy grinned.
"Aw, that was nice," Meowth grinned.
Soon the other Pokemon met up with Meowth.
"Well, what brings you guys here," Larvitar asked him.
"Vacation," James said.
"We certainly could use one," Jessie added.
Soon Charlie, Carrie, Paul and Thumbelina came to catch up with their Pokemon and saw the ex-members of Team Rocket. Soon Wobbefett came out of its Pokeball the same fashion it always did so. The children laughed to that as they joined Jessie and James.
"Don't interrupt," Jessie scolded the Pokemon, that had always annoyed her.
"Why does Wobbuffett keep doing that," Carrie chuckled.
"I think he thinks he's a comedian..." Jessie grumbled.
"Better him than me~" James grinned innocently.
"James, I think Emi warned me one time that you use to have a Victreebel that use to always chomp down on you," Charlie said.
"Oh, you have to remind me of that crazy plant..." James muttered.
"Some Pokemon are just so crazy," Paul said.
The others had to agree to this as it was true most of the time.
Soon everyone was getting ready and in line for the competition which made everyone get ready to watch.
"Testing, testing," a voice said in the microphone at first, "ladies and gentlemen, it's a beautiful day for Alto Mare's Water Chariot Festival and it looks like we've got a record turn-out! Are you ready for the main event?"
"Oh, the race is starting," Charlie grinned.
"Yes, a race," Pikachu cheered as he stood behind Brock as he held Togepi for Misty.
"Race! Race! Race," Togepi chirped.
Teddy was emotional for the race that he joined Pikachu and Togepi.
"Trainers, if you hear the signal, that'll be your cue," the announcer informed as a bird-like fashion was getting ready.
"These are Natu and a Xatu," Charlie grinned before him, Carrie, Thumbelina and Paul used their Pokedexes where then the information would be in there along with the information about Corsola.
"Natu and Xatu....." Thumbelina grinned back, "I love these names."
"Let's go," Ash called out once the final signal was heard to start the race.
Soon Pikachu and Teddy both fell off the bridge they were on and soon dropped down on Ash.
"TEDDY," Carrie cried out for her little Teddiursa in grief.
Pikachu and Teddy latched onto Ash as he rode and grinned to them as they didn't fall into the water.
"Thank heavens," Carrie sighed.
"Brock, you're supposed to be watching their Pokemon," Charlie scolded before moaning as he saw the older boy with a beautiful girl which had distracted him.
Soon Carrie pulled on Brock's ear to get him to concentrate.
"Owww," Brock yelped, "Carriiiieeee!!!"
Emi laughed as she felt like this was going to be a lot of fun. Soon she noticed that Pikachu and Teddy weren't on the bridge. "BROCK?!"
"Uh, hey, Emi, grand racing with Ash and Misty," Brock grinned hesitantly.
Emi simply shook her head as she continued on racing with the other racers as the race was yet on. It was an emotional time for everyone. Thumbelina looked around as she felt like she could sense another one's presence, but she wasn't too sure.
"Thumbelina, you alright," Jessie asked.
"I feel like we're not alone..." Thumbelina replied.
"Well, of course we're not alone," James warned her, "this is a public event."
"No...not that..." Thumbelina shook her head.
"Like a ghost," Mismagius asked.
"Probably, I'm not certain," Thumbelina shrugged.
"I hope Ash doesn't let Teddy fall," Carrie frowned.
"Don't worry, Sis, I wish Teddy will be alright," Paul consoled.
Meanwhile, with Teddy...
"Whee," Teddy grinned.
An Aipom seemed to notice something like Thumbelina had as its family watched the race from their spot. Soon Teddy smelled a new scent.
"Go, Ash," Pikachu chuckled.
Soon Teddy saw something moving. He felt captivated and went to follow after it as he tried to get away from Ash's shoulder. And where as he fell apart, he fell on something that couldn't be seen.
"Teddy, oh, dear," Carrie cried out in despair, "he can't swim..."
"Uh, Carrie, I think you wanna see this," Paul pointed to the flying Teddiursa.
"What," Carrie asked out of confusion as they saw this on the big screen.
Thumbelina shook chills down her spine as she had the feeling again. "It is happening to me again," she cried out in grief.
"Uh, Thumbelina, you're not seeing facts," Carrie said.
"You feel that as well," Thumbelina asked her cousins.
"Feel what," Paul asked.
"These...facts..." Thumbelina replied, "I'm not sure what they are......"
"What facts." Mismagius asked.
Thumbelina sighed. "Never mind..."
Ash yelped as he fell off guard from the Totodile and almost smashed into the wall until something saved him as if by magic. Soon he saw Teddy holding onto something that was invisible. "Why," he asked before he and Pikachu ended up in the water.
"I'm warning you guys," Thumbelina pouted, "something or someone is out there!"
"How am I not falling," Teddy asked.
"Teddy, it's gonna be alright," Carrie called out to her Pokemon, "Mama is coming!"
Soon Teddy felt himself being pushed away and landed in Ash's arms. "Hiya, Ash," he chuckled to the aspiring Pokemon Master.
"Teddy," Ash coughed up some water.
Soon Teddy heard something fly off. Totodile looked around. Soon Ash climbed back onto his chariot and picked up the handle and suddenly, they were zipping through the water.
"Woah," Teddy yelped.
"I wasn't aware Totodiles were so fast," James commented as he watched with Jessie and Meowth.
A returning champion was yet in the lead with his whale-like fashion. Soon Teddy climbed up to the invisible figure that was holding up Totodile.
"What in the world's gotten into you, Totodile," Ash chuckled out of emotion.
Teddy continued to climb up until he was back on the invisible forces back again.
"Teddy is floating again~" Carrie sang out of hesitation.
"Alright, this is freaky," Paul said.
Charlie tried to see if he could figure out what this was. "I wish Zadavia were here, I bet she'd know what it is."
"Same here," Paul said.
"Let me see what I can do..." Charlie tried to concentrate and went deep into his mind.
Ingrid was inside Charlie's mind as always and was staring into a stream of water with salmon swimming peacefully.
"Ingrid, can you help me with something," Charlie asked.
"What seems to be the problem, Charlie," Ingrid asked the young boy.
"There is something freaky going on in the race," Charlie said.
"Ah, you must be sensing Latios and Latias," Ingrid replied.
"I think one of them might be helping Totodile win the race," Charlie said.
"Oh, yes," Ingrid replied, "they are very hopeful. Also, you must protect them against Annie and Oakley."
"Are they the two women I saw in my vision," Charlie asked.
"Depends, what did they look like," Ingrid replied.
"One had silver hair and the other had solid yellow hair," Charlie informed.
"Yes, these are Annie and Oakley," Ingrid nodded, "they are both very evil, they might even be more evil than Butch and Cassidy."
"Yikes," Charlie said.
"Oh, yes," Ingrid sighed, "I hate to say it, but they are."
Sure enough, two salmon flew out of the water.
"Is that normal," Charlie asked.
"It's a symbol," Ingrid replied, "I see you need my help. I should come right over, but you must do something for me in return."
"Anything," Charlie promised.
"You and the others must come with me to meet my grandmother, Tanana," Ingrid replied.
"Alright," Charlie said.
"I will appreciate this once I am a grown shaman if I grow," Ingrid replied, "I help you all and you help me."
"Well, what are friends for," Charlie grinned.
"That's true," Ingrid smiled.
Sure enough, Charlie woke up and shook his head. "Ingrid will be here soon......" he warned the others as he then held his head while he looked slightly dizzy from channeling Ingrid on his own.
"Whee," Teddy grinned as he rode on the back of one of the invisible legendary Pokemon.
"Teddy," Carrie cried out in despair.
"Ingrid says that's from Latios and Latias," Charlie replied.
"Well, there is something out there," Thumbelina stated, "I knew it!"
"But which one could he be riding on," Paul asked.
"Ash, Totodile, where are you guys going," Emi called out once she saw her brother was being lured apart.
"What the," Teddy asked out of confusion.
Sure enough, the race ended and Misty landed in the water with Corsola. Then there was an instant replay to see who had won the race and it was Misty and Corsola.
"Dang it," Emi pouted.
"Misty is the winner," the announcer proclaimed and there were thunderous cheers.
"Alright, yes," Misty cheered as she hugged the new Pokemon.
"We did it," Corsola cheered with her.
"Congrats," Emi said.
"Thanks, Emi, you did grand as well," Misty grinned.
"Grand race, girls," the boy grinned toward the two as he sat on his whale-like fashion, "why don't you let me show you around Alto Mare?"
"That sounds grand," Emi grinned.
Misty also grinned at the offer as she hugged Corsola.
"Hey, what just happened to Ash," Brock looked around as he carried Togepi.
Meanwhile, with Ash, Pikachu, Teddy and a disappointed Totodile...
"Oh, I feel so foolish, I'm sorry we lost, Ash," Totodile hung his head.
"It's alright, Totodile," Ash grinned as he patted his head, "everyone makes a wrong turn once in a while."
"Oh, Ash," Totodile beamed and then hugged him.
Soon Totodile was returned to his Pokeball.
Teddy looked up as he had the feeling they were being watched. "Now what," he asked.
The two invisible Pokemon flew away and they seemed to flash blue and red on their road out.
"C'mon, guys," Emi said as she wrung her hair of the water, "we can take a gondola to check out Alto Mare like Venice, Italy."
Charlie blushed once he saw Emi wet.
"Alright, turn around, I have to change," Emi warned the others.
Then everyone turned around while as Charlie turned around, he couldn't help but turn right back to her.
"Ahem," Emi cleared her throat as she could see he was looking.
Then Charlie turned away as he turned as red as her clothes. Soon he turned around where he wouldn't see. Then Emi changed in peace.
"Well, uh...Charlie, how were the Thornberrys," Ash asked.
"Oh, it was awesome," Charlie grinned, "we celebrated Donnie's birthday and found out about how he got adopted into the family."
"That's nice," Ash said.
"I wish we could've done something for Michael and Lisa though..." Charlie sighed about Donnie's biological parents, "so mournful that Donnie had to lose them like that."
"Sure is," Ash frowned.
Soon Emi was ready and they were all on the gondola to explore Alto Mare.
"Oh, this place looks so beautiful," Carrie grinned as she held Teddy.
"It sure is," Emi grinned.
"I love the buildings.....they look so exotic," Paul grinned with his Vulpix.
"They sure do," Vulpix grinned.
"Alto Mare must be a beautiful place to live in," Odette warned the one boy, "by the way, who are you anyhow?"
"You've never heard of me? Well, that's a first," the boy chuckled, "I'm Ross and this is my Pokemon, Wailmer."
"Cool," Paul grinned.
"Well, you seem nicer up close than you did in the race," Emi said.
"Must have just been competitive," Carrie said.
"Yes, it can happen to me sometimes," Charlie replied, "like if I'd wrestle with Slam since we'd be off missions. This is a really beautiful city."
"Yes, and so are the girls," Brock added.
Soon Emi pulled his ear again.
"Oww, Emmiiii," Brock pouted.
"Keep it up, I could do this all day," Emi replied flatly.
"Same here," Misty and Carrie added.
"I hope you guys like it here," Ross grinned as he paddled them along the water.
Soon Misty was admiring her medal.
"Cool, right," Ross grinned to her, "check out the symbols, they warn stories about our town. Do you like it, Misty?"
"Yes, it's really nice," Misty grinned as she held the medal up against the sunlight, "they sort of look like Pokemon. Hey, there they are again, on top of these clouds."
"Where," Carrie asked as she looked around, "where?"
Everyone else tried to look with Misty.
"Oh, yes, these are known as the Guardians of Alto Mare," Ross informed as he saw statues of Pokemon which resembled dragons, "that's Latios on the left and Latias on the right. Legend has it that they watch over our town and protect us against danger."
"Ooh," Carrie grinned.
"Well, um...are they real Pokemon," Thumbelina asked.
"They say they do so," Ross shrugged as not even he knew.
"Cool," Emi said.
"I wish like to meet the real ones," Ash commented.
"Me as well," Pikachu agreed with his trainer.
"I bet they're amazing," Emi swooned all around.
"They must be," Paul said.
"Yes, I guess we never see them because facts are so peaceful around here, no one really needed their protection," Ross replied.
"You never know," Charlie said.
Mismagius looked up and all around as she had a hidden sense like Thumbelina did earlier. "Where could it be," she asked.
"Are you alright, Mismagius," Thumbelina asked her Pokemon.
"I can sense something," Mismagius said.
"What is this," Thumbelina asked, "nice or naughty?"
"I'm not sure I like it," Mismagius could only shrug, "well, where are we going next?"
"I just hope Jessie, James and Meowth do alright on their vacation," Emi said.
"I wish they will," Ash said.
Meanwhile, Jessie, James and Meowth were getting ice cream together. And soon where they saw Cassidy, Butch and Raticate eating ice cream as well, but didn't notice them.
"You guys, I have a bad feeling for not only us, but our newfound friends as well," James warned Jessie and Meowth.
"Same here," Meowth said.
Cassidy, Butch and Raticate were about to eat their ice cream. Soon they saw someone speeding in the water canal right behind them, which soaked them and melted their ice cream cones.
"Hey, who's the wise guys," Butch snarled.
Soon the trio looked to see the blonde and silver-haired girls as they smirked evilly. And where not only did Butch panic, but so did James.
"Nice hair, Cassidy," Jessie smirked.
"Oh, what have you done, you traitors," Cassidy snarled at her.
"You don't think they saw us, do you," Butch panicked, referring to the two women that drove past.
"Uh, who's he speaking about, James," Meowth asked.
"Annie and Oakley of course," James replied hesitantly.
"Come again," Raticate asked.
"Copycat," Meowth huffed at Raticate as he was originally the only English speaking Pokemon before he left Team Rocket with Jessie and James. "Anyhow, are they spies for Giovanni," he asked James.
"They're only the best members of Team Rocket of them all," Butch said.
"Better than you three will ever be," Jessie smirked.
"At least we're a lot more competent than you and Bill are," Cassidy frowned.
"MY NAME IS BUTCH," Butch snapped.
"Whatever," Jessie said.
"Let's follow Annie and Oakley," Cassidy smirked to Butch, "obviously they're up to no luck."
James nodded with Jessie in agreement.
"Can I help," Wobbuffett asked as he came out of his Pokeball as always.
"We have to warn the children," Meowth warned them.
Butch, Cassidy and Raticate thought this would be a best opportunity to work with Annie and Oakley to please Giovanni while the ex-Team Rocket members went to alert their friends. This was certainly bad news.
"That place over there has grand seafood," Ross informed the others as he dropped them away, "and if you're yet hungry, there's an ice cream place around the corner."
"Mm," Charlie grinned.
"Thanks for everything, Ross," Emi said.
"Sure, anytime," Ross grinned back as he paddled off, "enjoy your stay!"
"We will," the others called back.
"I can't wait to taste that ice cream," Thumbelina said.
"Ice cream is quite amazing," Carrie agreed.
Sure enough, Pikachu noticed something which made the other Pokemon look with him.
"Ciao," Ross warned them.
"Ciao," the others called back.
"Well, ice cream," Brock suggested.
"You know it," Carrie grinned.
"Let's go," Paul cheered.
"Oh, I hope they have pistachio," Misty said.
"Yuck," Thumbelina flinched.
"What do you mean, yuck," Misty huffed.
"I want strawberry," Carrie grinned.
"Vanilla," Charlie grinned.
Everyone went away to get their ice cream, but Pikachu stopped once he saw something.
"What's this," Pikachu asked himself as he scurried toward the sound of what he found as a woman was washing her Vaporeon with water.
"Come on, Vaporeon," the woman warned her Pokemon before they walked away together.
Soon Pikachu went to the source of the water. He only saw drops of water come out, which made him mournful at first. Then someone came and poured the water for him to make him happy.
"Oh, thank you," Pikachu beamed before drinking the water and letting it drip onto him due to a very warm day.
Soon Teddy started to sniff the person that turned on the water.
"Pikachu," Ash called out as he came with Emi and the others, "don't you want any ice cream?"
"They have you favorite~" Emi bribed.
"Ice cream," Pikachu grinned.
Soon the girl that turned on the water became interested in Ash. She stared right into his eyes as she came toward him.
"Personal space," Emi warned the girl.
The girl stared at her as well before she walked away without a word even said.
"That was weird," Carrie said.
Then the others shrugged.
"Mm..." Pikachu grinned as he soaked in cool, refreshing water.
Soon the girl saw some children running side-by-side. One of them said hi to her as they ran away together. The girl gave a polite stare before walking away on her own, but soon, Annie and Oakley suddenly appeared right behind her on their speedboat and soon they activated their shades. They studied the girl as she wasn't what she seemed or appeared to be which was actually Latias in a human disguise. Soon they got in front of her.
"Excuse me," the blonde smirked. "I love that shirt. Where'd you get it....Latias," she took out a blackened Pokeball.
The girl gasped and began to run the other road.
"Espeon," the blonde called out before tossing her ball.
"Ariados," the silver-haired girl added as she tossed her ball as well to summon their Pokemon.
Both Pokemon were ready to battle and attack the disguised Pokemon.
"Someone's in danger," Pikachu said and shook the water away from him before rushing over to see what it was.
Soon the rest of the Pokemon went to join Pikachu.
"Wait a moment, Pikachu," Ash cried out in despair as he chased after his primary Pokemon.
"Wait for us," Carrie called out.
Soon the children followed after their fleeing Pokemon.
Latias kept running off to get away from Annie and Oakley's Pokemon, but unfortunately, they caught up to her. Poor Latias was surrounded by both Espeon and Ariados. Espeon's eyes flashed red while Ariados trapped Latias into a silk web like a spider.
"Why would you run off," the blonde smirked, "we just wanted to warn you something about the shirt you're wearing."
"It's last year's color," the silver-haired girl added.
"Hey," Carrie frowned, "leave her alone!"
Teddy also frowned as he stood behind his mother/trainer.
"What do you think your doing here," Ash frowned at Annie and Oakley before he and Charlie helped Latias out of the webbing.
"We're just trying to prevent a fashion disaster," the blonde shrugged innocently.
"Well, this is a bit much," Paul frowned.
"You remind me of Angelica Pickles," Carrie scoffed.
"Oh, would you all like to give us some tips instead," the silver-haired girl smirked.
"Yes, please do so," the blonde added with a smirk as well.
"Your outfits are so out of date," Thumbelina smirked at the two evil women.
"Oohhhh...." Mismagius chuckled to that.
"Well, you're no prize either," the silver-haired girl scoffed, "pigtails? What are you, a baby? And that dress! What's that shade of yellow called, Annie?"
"I think it's called ugly," the blonde smirked.
"Well, what's with your hair," Carrie asked the silver-haired girl, "are you 40?!"
"WHAT," the silver-haired girl frowned, "well, at least I don't dress like an immature seven-year-old!"
"No, you dress like the 90's threw up," Charlie retorted.
"Ooh," the Pokemon smirked.
"C'mon, Thumbelina, this is fun," Palu encouraged.
"Oh, I don't know..." Thumbelina rubbed her arm, "my mother is usually one to insult another...I don't know if I could take my heart to do so."
"C'mon, Thumbelina, just try," Emi encouraged.
"I guess I could try....." Thumbelina frowned.
"What is that accent," the blonde mocked, "you sound like you're Europe Trash."
Thumbelina turned red in the face and shook her fists. "Well, at least I speak better English and French than you!"
"Any matters, leave this girl alone," Charlie frowned at the two women.
"Oh, I didn't know she had bodyguards," the blonde feigned concern, "you're not going to hurt us, are you?"
"Whatever would we do if they attacked us, Ann," the silver-haired girl added, putting her hands to her cheeks.
"Your acting is horrible," Thumbelina warned the two women.
"Like your faces," Paul added.
"Ooh," Carrie and Emi smirked.
"These are their faces," Thumbelina asked, "I thought they stole these from a warthog's behind."
"Oh, snap," Mismagius laughed.
"You totally found them, Thumbelina," Carrie grinned.
Thumbelina grinned bashfully and shuffled her feet shyly.
"Espeon, teach these children a few manners," the blonde-haired women said.
"Yes, ma'am," Espeon replied before zapping all of the children through the gem on its forehead.
"Hey," Larvitar frowned.
"That was a dirty trick," Ash frowned at the Espeon, "two can play at this game! Pikachu, get him!"
"On it, Ash," Pikachu replied as he went after Espeon.
Soon Espeon dodged Pikachu by jumping onto the women's boat, which was a foolish fact to do so.
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt them," Ash warned his Pokemon.
"You've had it, Ash," Pikachu replied before using his signature move.
Then Espeon, Annie and Oakley were instantly zapped, which made the others smirk as they deserved that.
"C'mon, let's get out of here," Emi suggested as Ash took Latias's hand.
"Agreed," Charlie nodded.
Pikachu thunder-bolted against the Ariados and then ran away with the others. Teddy used Fury Swipes on the road and followed everyone. Then Annie and Oakley's Pokemon were after the group by command of their trainers.
"Run," Thumbelina yelped.
Everyone ran apart from Annie and Oakley's Pokemon.
"These two won't give up," Teddy said.
"Get back here, you twits," Espeon hissed.
"Never," Mismagius frowned.
"You are all gonna get it," Ariados threatened.
They all just kept running and turned into an alley.
"It will be alright," Thumbelina warned Latias, "we won't hurt you like these monsters."
"That's right," Carrie added.
They kept running....and running...and running.
"These two are relentless," Teddy shivered.
Carrie spun around and picked up Teddy over her shoulders and ran on her tiptoes like the ballerina she had always dreamed of growing up to be.
"Isn't there a fashion to get rid of these two," Thumbelina asked.
"Over here, my friends," Ingrid waved to the others as she found a road for them to get away and lose Espeon and Ariados.
"Ingrid, you came," Charlie grinned.
"Warned ya so," Ingrid grinned back.
Then the others rushed toward where Ingrid was as she took them to safety.
"These two will never find us here," Ingrid said.
"Oh, Ingrid, it's so nice to see you," Paul grinned, "how have you been?"
"Fair enough, I'm glad to see you guys as well," Ingrid grinned back.
"We're glad to see you as well," Paul grinned back.
"Hey, where did that girl go," Ash looked around.
"What? She was here a moment ago," Emi said.
"Hey, guys," Misty's voice called out, "we're going to the museum!"
"This ice cream is grand," Brock added, "you should've had some!"
"Aww," Thumbelina pouted.
Mismagius gently patted her on the back.
"Well, we better get going," Carrie said.
"Come along then," Ingrid warned them.
"Alright," Emi said.
Ingrid walked with them, she carried her own Pokeball in her hand before tossing it out. There was of course a glow and soon came out Ingrid's very own Pokemon.
"Kabutops," Kabutops announced himself once he was activated.
"Woah! A Kabutops," Emi grinned.
Ingrid grinned back.
"That reminds me, how's Roshan," Carrie asked Ingrid.
"He's just fine, very emotional about the ceremony that my grandmother is holding," Ingrid replied, "Charlie promised me you all would come."
"And we will," Charlie grinned.
"Thank you, it means oh-so much to me and my people," Ingrid replied.
"We can understand," Carrie said.
Soon Ingrid led them to a museum.
"Have you been to Alto Mare before, Ingrid," Thumbelina asked, "you seem to know a lot about it."
"I've had visions of this place during my special ceremonies at home with my human parents and infant brother," Ingrid replied as she stood behind her Kabutops.
"That's grand to know," Carrie said.
"I just wanna know where that girl disappeared to," Ash commented.
"She must have gone off somewhere," Thumbelina said.
"You shall find out sooner or later," Ingrid replied as she and Kabutops led the others to the museum.
"Wow, this museum is big," Paul said.
Soon a camera came out and seemed to spy on the group with their Pokemon. Unknown to them, Charlie had super-hearing. He turned around and looked around until he saw the camera and hummed suspiciously.
"C'mon, let's go," Larvitar tugged on his hand.
"OK, that's it," Charlie grinned.
The children and Pokemon were all very emotional. Teddy was the most emotional. Carrie grinned to her Teddiursa as they came inside the museum, but they were being spied on by Annie and Oakley. Soon they were inside the museum to see what was inside. Everyone looked in amazement all around.
"I bet Eloise would love to come to this museum with Philip and not misbehave," Charlie chuckled on the road inside as he stood behind Larvitar.
"Look ahead of you," Ingrid pointed ahead to show a fossil of a Pokemon.
"Is that an Aerodactyl," Carrie asked.
"You have a nice eye, little lady," an older man grinned as he came toward the group.
"Thank you, sir," Carrie said.
"This is also a reminder of our past," the old man warned the group, "these fossils are Pokemon that once terrorized Alto Mare."
"Wow," Brock exclaimed.
"Why," Thumbelina asked.
"It's part of our culture young one," the older man replied.
"No, I mean, why did they terrorize Alto Mare," Carrie asked.
"Come right this fashion," the older man led them around the museum to show them a tour.
"This place is so lovely," Emi looked all around.
"It sure is," Charlie grinned.
Kabutops walked behind Ingrid as he saw a familiar-looking fossil, which strongly resembled him.
"Excuse me, sir, but what is that," Paul asked as he saw a huge machine.
"This is called the DMA," the older man replied, "the Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare."
"Woah," Paul said.
"Wah," Brock grinned in emotion as he looked into a stained glass window, "I have seen the light! I will certainly meet a girl in this town!"
"Just don't hold your breath," Misty smirked.
Soon Teddy saw the girl from earlier, drawing.
"Long ago, the Aerodactyl and Kabuptos taught by an evil trainer and attacked people, where everyone lived in fear until Latios came and brought water into the town," the older man educated, "drowning the evil Pokemon and turning our streets into canals. That's why the town was named Alto Mare which means 'The High Seas'. That's if they built the DMA."
"Wow," Charlie said.
"They wanted to make sure that no one would ever disrupt their peace again," the older man continued, "fortunately, they never had to use it. It's just a sacred monument--"
Soon Teddy was seen on the machine, willing to climb it where he could get to the girl.
"It's her," Ash gasped as he came forward with Pikachu as he looked up into the distance.
"Don't touch it," the older man glared to the young Teddiursa.
This alarmed Teddy as he suddenly jumped towards the girl as he his fashion to get to her.
"Teddy," Carrie cried out to her Pokemon in despair.
Teddy caught hold of the railing in front of him as the girl looked toward him and was about to leave. "Wait," Teddy groaned as he tried to pull himself up.
"Who is that girl," Thumbelina hummed in thought as Mismagius floated behind her.
Soon Teddy felt someone helping him up the railing. The girl grinned to him, but then she ran away.
"Hey, wait," Teddy called out before following her.
"We better go after him," Charlie said.
"Where are they going," Misty wondered.
"Don't know," Ingrid shrugged.
"You don't know," Estelle gasped at her before going after the others, "oh, Teddy!"
"I'm not perfect," Ingrid shrugged modestly.
Kabutops shrugged with her. They all began to run away together.
"This reminds me of a movie Jenny told me about," Paul said, "it's about a guy who goes all around Paris to find the girl of his dreams, but he eventually finds her in the Eiffel Tower."
"Aw," Thumbelina grinned.
"Is Mama in the tower," Vulpix missed the point.
"You're missing the point," Paul face-palmed.
"Oh," Vulpix pouted.
"Wait! Stop," Teddy called out.
"There she is," Emi looked out onto the streets, "now's our chance."
"C'mon, Pikachu," Ash warned their shared Pokemon.
Pikachu nodded and followed the Ketchum siblings and everybody else after the strange girl.
"I think it's time for magic," Charlie said.
"Did you say magic," Carrie asked.
"GAH!! Don't do that," Charlie gasped at her sudden appearance.
"I'm sorry, I got emotional," Carrie chuckled sheepishly.
Soon Charlie and Carrie teleported in front of the strange girl. The girl gasped silently and stepped back slightly.
"Hey, you don't have to be afraid, we won't hurt you," Charlie promised.
"We're your friends," Carrie added.
"We just wanted to know where you went after we ran from those two women and their Pokemon that were after you," Charlie and Carrie said, "and why does your hair look like Latias ears?"
The girl tilted her head, she gave a small grin to the Rawling twins though.
"Can you speak," Charlie asked.
The girl shook her head.
"Well then, you're deaf," Charlie asked.
Latias shook her head again.
"She's a mute," Carrie said.
Latias nodded to that. Soon they saw Ash and the others going after a girl that looked like the one they were with. The girl looked over and soon disappeared as Charlie and Carrie saw that and turned back to her only to see she had vanished.
"Was that who I think that was," Charlie asked.
"That depends," Carrie replied, "do you think that girl is Latias?"
"Yes," Charlie nodded.
Mismagius led Thumbelina to follow a portal and soon the two ended up in it. It was a very dark, yet beautiful space with Butterfree flying along in harmony.
"This is very beautiful and insane..." Thumbelina commented.
Mismagius nodded in agreement. Soon they saw the girl and decided to go over to see her.
"Hi," Thumbelina greeted.
The girl grinned and waved to her before going away.
"Hey, stop, please," Thumbelina ran after her, "these boots aren't made for running, you know!"
"Why is she doing this," Paul asked.
Soon the girl was swinging on a swing and watched the others with their Pokemon. A machine that whirred up caught everyone's attention and there seemed to be a splash in a pool not too far apart from them.
"What was that," Charlie asked.
"Look, guys," Pikachu called out as something came out from the water.
"It...it must be Latios......" Thumbelina said as no one could see what stormed out of the water and splashed.
"Must be, but why is he attacking us," Teddy asked.
"He must be protecting his sister," Charlie said before crossing his arms, "I know I do so."
"You better get him to listen to us where we can warn him we're not here to hurt Latias or capture her," Ash said.
"Hey, Latios," Charlie called out.
The dragon-like fashion zipped side-by-side, which made his bandanna fly away slightly to reveal his awkwardly cut light brunette hair.
Then Charlie took his dark blue bandanna and tied it back on before frowning. "Stop!"
Soon Latias charged at Charlie, ready to take him on. Charlie growled as he looked ready. Latios zipped past again and ended up with Charlie on his back.
"Alright, stop this," Charlie warned the Pokemon, "wow...this feels like The Neverending Story..."
Latios began to try everything he could to get Charlie off his back.
Charlie stayed on there and waved his arms out with a laugh. "I'm Superman!"
Latios began to fly around all over the place to try to knock him away. Charlie yawned as that was just amateur work. Then Pikachu tried to use Thunderbolt against Latios, he didn't mind hitting Charlie since he knew it wouldn't harm the boy, but of course, his hair wouldn't be safe. Paul snickered silently at Charlie's new hairstyle.
"Ha, ha, very funny," Charlie coughed out smoke.
"Pikachu," Emi cried out in grief to the fallen Pokemon and picked him up.
"He's dead," Pikachu frowned at the invisible Latios.
"Latios! Please stop! We're not here to hurt or capture your sister," Jesse warned the now invisible legendary Pokémon.
Latios looked up. "Really," he asked.
"Yes, you can trust us," Charlie replied, "we're not like these she-beasts!"
"What is going on here," a female voice exclaimed.
Everyone looked around to find the source of the voice, and where it was from the girl that looked like the one with them. Soon Latios came in front of the girl and stopped as he appeared for everyone to see. Soon Charlie got off his back, looking a little dizzy from all the twists and turns.
"Oh, Charlie," Emi cooed to the boy and hugged him close against her chest, "it's alright, it's all over."
"That was one wild ride," Charlie said.
"It's alright, Charlie, it's okay," Emi consoled.
"You all are here to steal Latios, aren't you," the girl frowned.
"Non, we are not," Thumbelina frowned, "listen to us, we come in pieces!"
"Peace," Mismagius corrected.
"Piece," Thumbelina said.
"We come in peace," Carrie said.
"Yes, that," Thumbelina rubbed her hands together hesitantly.
The silent girl nodded in agreement.
"There's two of them...." Larvitar said before falling over as he felt confused.
"Latios, don't you think it's time you show us all your true form," Carrie asked the mute girl.
"How can we even trust any of you," the speaking girl frowned, "alright, Latios, get them!"
Latios was about to attack the group.
"That's enough," the older man from earlier called out, which made Latios stop what he was doing, "Bianca! Latios! I wish these folks mean no harm."
"Grandpa, they were--" the girl tried to explain.
"Grandpa," Emi asked out of confusion.
"Bianca," Ash added.
"Grandpa, they were--" Bianca frowned.
"Csendes," the old man silenced the girl. "It's alright...Latias, do you want to play with your new friends," he asked with a grin.
The mute girl silently nodded with a grin.
"Latias," Charlie and Carrie asked in even more confusion.
"Latias," Ingrid nodded to them as she came with Kabutops.
"I knew it," Charlie and Carrie grinned.
Latias took Ash's hand and began to run with him and the others ran after them where they wouldn't be left behind.
"Nice sketchpad," Paul grinned to Bianca.
"Thanks," Bianca grinned back.
"I love art...a lot," Paul said, "I usually paint though. My friend Barbie taught me once and she warned us a story about Rapunzel."
"Rapunzel the artist, right," Bianca asked, "I guess I haven't heard that side of the story before."
Soon Ash and Latias were at the swing. She sat him down while she stood on the end and swung with him.
"Swinging helps me think sometimes," Thumbelina warned Latias.
"I thought Latias was the name of a Pokemon," Ash said.
Soon the girl grinned and she seemed to transform into the Pokemon, which surprised everyone instantly.
"WAH," Ash yelped and tripped apart from the swing in shock.
Latias chirped and soon helped Ash up to safety.
"Amazing," Charlie grinned.
"Thanks, I'm alright," Ash grinned to Latias, "thanks a lot."
Latias cheered happily and spun around in a circle around Ash.
"Aw, Ash, she likes you," Thumbelina grinned.
"She thinks you're cute," Emi translated of what Latias said.
"She must've really taken a liking to this young man," Bianca's grandfather grinned.
"Yes...." Pikachu blinked and then yelped as Latios came up behind him, "uh...h-hello there..."
"Friend," Latios grinned before licking his cheek.
"Whew," Charlie grinned.
"Friend," Pikachu grinned back to Latios.
This was the start of a very beautiful friendship.
"Well done, my friends," Ingrid warned the others, "you have found Latios and Latias."
"Indeed so," Kabutops grinned.
"Nice Kabutops you've had there, little lady," Bianca's grandfather said to Ingrid.
"Thank you," Ingrid replied, "he was a gift from my homeland to teach me responsibility in time for the birth of my brother, Roshan."
"And I wish that it's working," Bianca's grandfather said.
"You could say that," Ingrid replied, "I have a strange life and it all started on a Wolf Quest for Carrie and the daughter of Balto, Aleu."
Soon everyone started to walk around the secret place.
"This is like The Secret Garden..." Paul grinned, "tt's so peaceful and tranquil."
"Sure is," Vulpix grinned back.
"Oh, I could do a Spring Ballet here..." Carrie grinned.
The Ralts twins came out to join Carrie as she began to dance out of happiness. The Ralts twins began to join in with her.
"Wow, she's a grand dancer..." Bianca noticed, "she must've been dancing her entire life."
"You could say that," Charlie said, "well, mind warning us why Latias took the form of a human looking like you?"
"That's one of her powers," Bianca explained, "she can take on the shape of a human and since we're best friends, she turns into me a lot."
"Ohh," Charlie grinned.
Pikachu and the other Pokemon laughed as they took turns riding on Latias and Latios's backs.
"Whee," Teddy grinned.
Latias playfully took Ash's hat and flew away.
"Hey, what are ya doing here," Ash laughed, "that's my favorite hat!"
"I think she wants to play with you," Emi chuckled.
Ash laughed and chased after Latias as she went towards the fountains. Soon Latios's eyes glowed, which summoned his sister and her eyes also glowed.
"What's going on," Carrie asked.
Latios called out as Charlie got on his back again and he dove into the water.
Charlie held his breath until he stopped. "Wait, what am I doing here," he laughed at himself since he could breathe underwater. Soon his feet and legs were turned into his fish tail. Then he got away from Latios's back for right now and began to swim around like a little merman.
Soon Latias glowed and it seemed to alternate the reality into the room.
"Woah," Thumbelina said.
They all seemed to be moving underwater with Latios and Charlie.
"Is this an ability," Emi asked.
"Don't be afraid, Latias has the ability to project to us what Latios is seeing," Bianca explained.
"It's called sight-sharing," Bianca's grandfather added in.
"Sight-sharing," the group asked.
"This is a rare privilege," Bianca's grandfather grinned, "to see through the eyes of Latios."
"I guess Latios feels he really trusts you, guys," Bianca grinned to the others.
"That's nice," Carrie grinned.
"Emotion," Pikachu beamed as he sat on Ash's shoulder.
"That sure is," Teddy grinned.
"Latias is amazing," Ash grinned as well, "warn Latios we say thanks, alright?"
"Oh, yes, please," Emi added.
After a while, the sight-sharing was over.
"Well, how long have you guys known Latios and Latias," Thumbelina asked.
"Well, Grandpa's known them since they were babies," Bianca replied.
"I've known them since their father brought water into our town," Bianca's grandfather added, "he saved us from a lifetime of terror and brought us this beautiful city. Though, I'm afraid the end was too much for him."
"What do you mean," Carrie asked.
"He used up all his power bringing water and vanished into thin air," Bianca said.
"But in his place, there was a beautiful crystal called The Soul Dew which contained the spirit of Latios," Bianca's grandfather added.
"Woah," the Rowling twins said.
"The father died saving the town and left his children as orphans..." Thumbelina frowned.
"I'm afraid so, Thumbelina," Bianca's grandfather replied.
"That's so mournful," Thumbelina frowned.
"Hey, this looks like the defense mechanism that's in the museum," Charlie observed one printing in the ground.
"Hey, you're right," Larvitar agreed as he also took a look.
"Shouldn't we destroy the DNA in case someone tries to use it," Thumbelina asked.
"We'll need Soul Dew involved which is used to power it," Bianca's grandfather warned her.
"Woah," Thumbelina said.
"This is the South Dew right here," Bianca's grandfather showed them the pool of water.
"It's beautiful," Carrrie grinned.
"It's really cool," Charlie agreed with his sister.
"I'll tell you all something," Bianca's grandfather began as they looked into the dew, "that beautiful jewel not only contains the spirit of Latios, but, in the wrong hands, the power to destroy our town."
"Oh, my..." Emi frowned.
"It must never leave this pool," Bianca's grandfather concluded, "then you see, it's reluctant that it's location should be kept a secret."
"Right," the children agreed responsibly.
"Ash, let's go for a ride," Latias cooed as she came behind the boy and sprouted her wings.
"Ash, Latias wants to go for a ride," Emi translated.
"Latias, hang on a second," Ash cried out in despair.
"Ah..." Emi sighed, "the life of a future Pokemon Princess is an exhausting one."
Latias began to have damage holding onto Ash. Then she let go of him and Latios swooped in, carrying the boy on his back and flew him all around and back to the others.
"That was close," Emi grinned.
"Play! Play," Latias nuzzled up against Ash.
"She wants to play once more," Bianca chuckled.
"We can warn," Charlie grinned.
"I'm sorry, we have go find the others," Ash warned the Pokemon.
"Play," Latias asked.
"But we'll play again real soon, alright," Ash grinned.
"We promise," Emi said.
"Well, shall we head back then," Bianca's grandfather smiled.
"Alright," Ash nodded.
Latias frowned mournfully as they were all on their road out.
"Aw, Latias is mournful that we have to leave," Thumbelina frowned.
"I know, but we have to go....." Mismagius agreed, "come along, Thumbelina."
Thumbelina turned back to Latias on the road out and felt very bad for her. "Shouldn't one of us stay behind," she asked.
"Thumbeline," Carrie asked as she picked up Teddy.
"I think I should stay here just for Latios and Latias's sake," Thumbelina grinned, "you all go ahead without me."
"You sure," Paul asked.
"Yes, yes, I will be fine here, you all go," Thumbelina grinned.
Then the others shrugged, who said a farewell to her and then left back into the main part of Alto Mare.
Thumbelina ran and laughed as Latios and Latias flew all around. "I wish I could fly like you guys," she grinned.
Then the two legendary Pokemon decided to help her with that wish. Thumbelina ran with them until Latias came underneath her and carried her where they could fly together. Thumbelina laughed as she enjoyed this and her pigtails flew in the air. Unfortunately, their fun wouldn't last.
"We can cut through here," Bianca's grandfather showed the others a road out.
"Thanks, sir," Paul grinned.
"Yes, thanks," Charlie said.
"Where are we," Ash asked as it seemed like they were in a wooden shack.
"This is my workshop." Bianca's grandfather smiled.
"Grandpa makes the gondolas here." Bianca informed.
"This is amazing," Emi said.
"Yes, it's a job that keeps me pretty busy in this town," Bianca's grandfather grinned as he walked around with them, "Bianca, why don't you take the others to the road back to town?"
"Alright," Bianca nodded to her grandfather.
"And off we go," Paul said.
They had to split boats of course since there were so many of them. Bianca, Charlie and Ingrid took control of the gondolas that they had through the water.
"Just around the riverbend~" Ingrid began to sing out of motivation, "JUST AROUND THE RIVERBEND!!"
Larvitar made sure not to fall apart.
"Careful, buddy," Charlie reminded him.
"I'm trying," Larvitar nodded.
"No splashing, Ingrid, Larvitar's a rock type," Charlie warned, only to get splashed by the native girl, "INGRID!!"
Ingrid chuckled innocently. Kabutops did his best to keep Larvitar dry. The sun was starting to set as it was almost dark as Bianca led the others back into town of Alto Mare.
Later on, a lost Espeon was heard coming into the shop.
"Do you guys hear that," Charlie asked.
"No, Super Geek," Carrie replied, though in a teasing fashion by calling him a geek.
"It sounded like an Espeon," Charlie said.
"Aw, man..." Paul moaned as he had Vulpix in his lap, "I bet it's those rotten girls from earlier!"
"Yes," Vulpix added.
"What girls," Bianca asked.
"These two women that were after Latias," Carrie said.
"Somebody was chasing Latias," Bianca frowned.
"Yes, these two girls were," Ash replied.
"That's weird," Bianca frowned, "huh..."
"But the question is why," Paul asked.
"That's what I'd like to know," Bianca nodded.
Soon Bianca's grandfather saw the Espeon.
"It has to be them," Ingrid warned the others, "how many others do you know who has an Espeon?"
"Well, there is Yuko," Carrie said.
"I doubt Yuko would be around here..." Charlie commented, "then it must be these girls."
"Annie and Oakley are a couple of witches in disguise of beautiful ladies," Ingrid narrowed her eyes.
"We should get some sleep," Paul said.
"Oh, the moon is like a giant sapphire..." Carrie commented, "it's almost as blue as Lapis...I do wonder if we'll ever meet her or the Crystal Gems...Daddy's stories make them sound so cool..."
"I'd like to meet Rose," Charlie grinned, "I mean, how cool is it that Dad got to bring her back to life?"
"I know, right," Paul grinned back.
Meanwhile...
Annie and Oakley jumped from roof-to-roof past the moonlight to find the legendary Pokemon.
"There they go," Raticate warned Butch and Cassidy, "all we must do is follow them over the rooftops."
"That's right," Cassidy said.
"Uh, I'm not really nice at gymnastics..." Butch muttered.
"C'mon, Ben, this is our chance, I can almost taste it," Cassidy smirked.
"MY NAME IS BUTCH," Butch yelled upset.
"Oh, shut up and get moving," Cassidy frowned.
Unfortunately, Cassidy had caught a Wobbuffett as well not knowing it would be as annoying as Jessie's Wobbufett. Annie and Oakley swiftly moved over the rooftops as swift as Batman villains, and where Annie was going to send her Espeon to handle Bianca's grandfather.
Raticate, Butch and Cassidy fell on top of each other and Wobbuffett landed on them, which made it worse. "Looks like Team Rocket's blast--"
SPLASH!!
Cassidy was starting to regret on catching her very own Wobbuffett. After frightening away Bianca's grandfather, Annie and Oakley broke into the secret paradise where Thumbelina yet was with Latios and Latios. Mismagius was there as well.
"They must be in here somewhere," Oakley said.
"This was where the children were playing with them," Annie added.
Suddenly, Latios flew over with a frown toward the evil sisters. Mismagius floated next to him.
"Looks like now they wanna play with us, Annie, and they have a friend with them," Oakley smirked.
"You two," Thumbelina frowned.
Annie and Oakley cartwheeled out of the road.
"I know," Annie smirked to her sister, "first one to catch Latios and that Mismagius wins!"
"You leave them alone," Thumbelina frowned.
"Or else what," Oakley smirked.
"Latias, Latios, watch out," Thumbelina cried out in despair.
The two Pokemon seemed to listen to her and turned invisible where Annie and Oakley couldn't find them.
"Ha," Thumbelina smirked at Annie and Oakley.
"That's a new one," Annie commented.
"These two are just complete with surprises," Oakley added.
"I think you two should leave before it's no use," Thumbelina sneered.
"Oh, you're not the boss of us," Annie smirked, "I think you need a little sun, darling, you're white as a ghost."
Thumbelina simply ignored her. Soon Latios zipped right at Annie, knocking her down. Annie jumped back onto her feet and ran toward Oakley and the girls put on their shades where they could see the now invisible Pokemon.
"What," Thumbelina asked out of confusion.
"Right there," Annie pointed, "Espeon, use your Fast Attack!"
"Oh, dear," Mismagius gasped upon seeing this.
"EAT FAST ATTACK," Espeon snarled and attacked against the Pokemon.
"Erm...Mismagius, Levitate," Thumbelina tried out.
"Try a different attack," Mismagius said.
Thumbelina took a look at Mismagius's attack list to pick one. Soon Mismagius used Night Shade to show it could use that attack. Soon Espeon yelped and glowered toward Mismagius.
"Hello," Mismagius smirked with her eyes glinting.
"Why, you," Annie frowned.
"Ariados, use your Night Shade," Oakley commanded.
"Taste this," Ariados frowned as he shot Night Shade from the horn.
Latias shrieked as she suffered from a critical hit.
"Latias," Mismagius and Thumbelina cried out in grief.
Soon Thumbelina rushed over to Latias.
"Alright, if you wanna be the hero, we'll take care of you first," Oakley smirked as she tossed a trapping net toward Latias.
Latios wasn't about to let his sister get caught. Latias yelled out as the net caught her and soon she looked incredibly weak.
"Why are you doing this, you putains," Thumbelina frowned at Annie and Oakley. She began to get Latias free.
"Foolish brat..." Annie smirked until she turned over to see Latios coming, "Espeon, Psy Beam!"
"Have a taste of my Psy Beam," Espeon warned Latios before firing her attack.
Latios yelled out and then fell next to his sister.
"Espeon, Tackle Attack," Annie said.
"Stop this," Thumbelina frowned, "Mismagius, throw them another Night Shade!"
Mismagius nodded before shooting Night Shade. Espeon yelled out and snarled at Mismagius.
"Frere Jacuqes, Frere Jacques~" Mismagius smirked as she shot at Espeon, "dormez-vous? Dormez-vous? I zap you with Night Shade, all you are is complete with hate, suck it up...suck it up~"
"This is interesting," Oakley said.
"Brother," Latias cried out in despair.
"Sister," Latios called back.
"Psychic Attack, Espeon," Annie commanded.
"No," Thumbelina cried out in grief as she ran to try and take the hit.
"Take this," Espeon snarled as she shot her attack.
Soon Thumbelina jumped out in front of the legendary Pokemon.
"Ariados, Spin Attack," Oakley called out.
Soon the two Pokemon attacked, only for Thumbelina to get hit instead of the Pokemon siblings.
"Thumbelina," Mismagius cried out in despair.
The Pokemon siblings began to look worried for Felicity.
"Go ahead...without me..." Thumbelina warned the Pokemon, "you don't deserve to be their guinea pigs...an expression I learned from Tech."
"No luck, we're not leaving you," Mismagius said.
Latios tried to free Thumbelina since she risked her own life to save his and Latias's.
"Ah, ah, ah," Annie smirked before throwing a net a Latios.
"Stop this," Thumbelina begged.
The net seemed to hurt Latios. Soon Mismagius let Latias free before frowning to Annie and Oakley.
"Brother," Latias cried out for Latios in grief.
"They're just like Charlie and Carrie..." Thumbelina commented.
"Latias, go," Latios warned her.
"Latios..." Latias frowned before going away without him underwater in despair.
"Mismagius, go find the others," Thumbelina said.
"You stay safe," Mismagius hugged her trainer and went away.
"Thank you very much, Mismagius...." Thumbelina whispered to her Pokemon.
"Sure, they got away," Annie moaned. Them she looked over to the straining Latios. "Well, at least we have one of them and we surely put that brat in her place."
"Then why is she yet alive," Oakley asked.
"She's yet alive," Annie asked back.
Thumbelina had a weak, but sinister smirk toward Annie and Oakley.
"We'll have to bring her with us," Annie said.
"Especially if we have...this," Oakley smirked as she tried to get the Soul Jewel, but it seemed to be stuck, "stubborn little gem, isn't it?"
"Just try not to break it, Oakley," Annie folded her arms with a scoff.
"No, don't," Thumbelina cried out in grief.
"Found it," Oakley smirked as she took the jewel out into her hand.
"Let me just take a look at this~" Annie took the jewel and awed at it in all its glory.
Thumbelina just knew this was wrong.
"Oh, I hope Eglantine Price and Emelius Browne forgive me for what has become of their daughter," Mismagius prayed. Luckily for her, she found Latias who was going to a window. "Oh, Latias, wait up," she followed after the dragon-like fashion.
Unfortunately for them, Annie and Oakley were now on their way to the DMA. Thumbelina silently moaned as she was forced to stay put, a tear rolled down her cheek as she hoped everything would work out well in the end. It usually did so, even for Quasimodo even if he didn't win the affections of Esmeralda.
That night, everyone was asleep. The Rowling siblings were mostly dreaming about the Crystal Gems since they had been talking about them after they saw the gem that was the Soul Jewel. Soon Mismagius and Latias flew into the room.
"Peridot, you're so funny," Pauk laughed in his sleep.
"Garnet, it's admirable of you to be Ruby and Sapphire," Carrie grinned in her sleep.
"Pearl, get your nose out of my face, it's poking into mine," Charlie said.
Soon the Pokemon awakened they could sense something apart.
"What's that," Larvitar asked.
"Guys, we have a visitor," Pikachu said as he left Ash's side to check it out.
Soon Emi moaned and awakened once she heard the Pokemon. "What's going on," she yawned.
Suddenly, there was a glow all around Latias before she became the human form she had longly admired as Mismagius floated behind her.
"Pikachu, what's wrong," Emi cooed to her and her brother's shared Pokemon.
Soon everyone else awakened to see what was going on.
"It's Bianca," Charlie and Carrie called out.
"What's wrong," Paul asked Bianca.
Soon the human girl latched onto him and wept into his shoulder.
"It's not Bianca," Mismagius warned them, "it's Latias."
"That would explain why she didn't speak," Emi said.
"She's Latias," Brock and Misty asked out of shock.
"Yes," Charlie nodded.
"Where's Thumbelina," Carrie asked.
"That's what I'm here to warn you about," Mismagius replied, "Annie and Oakley's Pokemon tried to attack and she sacrificed herself."
This caused the group to gasp in shock.
"Is she hurt," Carrie asked.
"She's stunned, but thankfully, she hasn't been murdered," Mismagius replied, "her father biting her one evening might be to help for it and she will never grow up like Peter Pan and his Lost Boys."
"That must be a pain," Emi said.
"That is," Mismagius sighed, "she deeply hates it."
"Any matter, let's introduce Latias to Brock and Misty," Carrie said.
"Right," Ash agreed, "Latias, we'd like for you to meet our friends; this is Misty and Brock."
Latias looked down and bowed her head silently.
"Uh, hi..." Misty waved sheepishly.
"She's cute," Togepi chirped.
"You can trust them," Charlie grinned.
Latias looked to Brock and Misty. Then she stood up and transformed back into her Pokemon form, which surprised Brock and Misty before there was a knocking at the door.
"Who is this,~" Carrie called.
"It's us," Jessie, James and Meowth's voices called back.
"And me," Wobbefett's voice added.
"Will you stop doing that," Jessie's voice frowned out of annoyance.
"Aww..." Wobbuffett pouted.
"Jessie and James," Emi grinned, "what're you guys doing here?"
"We were on vacation, but then we saw Cassidy, Bob and Raticate as well as Annie and Oakley and had to warn you guys," Meowth said.
"Where are Cassidy and Butch now," Teddy asked.
"Under the water," Meowth laughed, "what a couple of mooks!"
"How did they get in the water," Emi asked.
"They were about to go after you guys, but their Wobbuffett was just as annoying and obnoxious as mine," Jessie smirked.
"Wow," Charlie grinned.
"Well, we're going to help you all," James said.
"Thanks, guys," Ash grinned, "we could use all the help we can get."
"I just hope Thumbelina is alright," Mismagius sighed as she felt she had failed Price and Emelius, who only allowed her to be their daughter's Pokemon if she would protect her and keep her safe from harm.
Meanwhile, with Annie and Oakley......
Ariados had trapped Bianca, her grandfather and Thumbelina in a web and came back toward Annie and Oakley as they stood with Espeon.
"This is really bad," Thumbelina frowned.
"Latios, you've got to open your eyes where Latias can see what's going on to us," Bianca cried out in despair while straining in the web.
"Of course, sight-sharing," Thumbelina grinned.
"Latios, please wait," Bianca begged.
Soon Latios opened his eyes as he was trapped within the DNA, thanks to Annie and Oakley to contact his sister and where Latias's eyes glowed.
"Oakley seems much more evil than Annie," Carrie commented as she held Teddy in her arms.
"You can say that again," Emi said.
Soon Oakley was bringing back the Pokemon who terrorized Alto Mare years and years ago back to life.
"Oh, my..." Teddy gulped.
Ingrid's eyes seemed to glow blue as this was happening. "No...she can't do this," she cried out in grief while seeming to have an episode during Oakley's business.
"This is very, very bad," Kabutops said.
"Kabutops, I think this is what Mother and Father warned us about for if we go visit Grandmother in her tribe," Ingrid warned her Pokemon.
Soon Oakley sent the two Pokemon out to get Latias.
"It's the fossils," Emi gasped.
"The evil fossils," Paul frowned with his Vulpix.
Soon Latios shrieked out of pain from the electricity.
"Think about what you're doing here," Bianca's grandfather warned the girls.
"Alright, you two," Oakley smirked, "bring me back that Latias."
Soon the two fossilized evil Pokemon went out to find Latias.
"NoooooOOOO," Latios cried out before closing his eyes in despair.
Soon Latias blinked as she stopped seeing what her brother was seeing.
"Latias, are you alright," Ingrid consoled as Misty and Brock looked shocked.
"Brother is hurt," Latias frowned.
"Guys, what is going on," Misty asked.
"I think there's danger," Brock said.
"Everybody in this city is in danger," Ingrid informed.
"I agree," Carrie said.
"There must be something we can do," James hoped.
"Yes, mostly saved Latios," Ingrid replied as she tried to console Latias through spiritual medication.
"And that's what we're going to do," Charlie said.
"We must..." Ingrid said before getting into a prayer stance, "even if I must contact The Grand Spirits of my grandmother's tribe."
"Let's go then," Emi said.
"I shall contact your spirit animals," Ingrid said.
"Spirit Animals," the others asked.
"Yes," Ingrid explained, "it's an animal who guides and protects your spirit. They're very reluctant to my people."
"Nice," Ash said.
Kabutops joined Ingrid in the prayer since he was part of the family.
"We better go now," James said.
"That's the smartest idea you've ever had," Jessie smirked.
"Oh, you stop that, Jessie," James frowned.
"Uh, I think something might be going on to the windows," Meowth said as he noticed something.
Soon the others took a look only to see that he was unfortunately right. Something was happening to the windows to keep anyone from escaping. There were sharp crystal-like fashions on each window.
"What is that," Jessie yelped.
"How should we know," Paul asked.
"Stop this, please wait," Thumbelina cried out in grief, who looked quite miserable as Oakley was under control.
Annie was even starting to get worried about her partner. Bianca and her grandfather just couldn't believe that Oakley could be so evil.
Luckily, half the group was able to get out.
"Come on, we must go," Emi called out as she took one gondola with the others with her.
"And off we go," Larvitar smiled.
"Stay close, Larvitar, I don't want you to get wet," Charlie hugged his Pokemon.
"Alright, bro," Larvitar grinned.
"Ash, do you know where to go," Emi asked her brother.
"It's worth a try," Ash replied as he took the paddle.
"Let's get to the museum," Mismagius said.
"That's a nice idea, Mismagius," Emi agreed.
"And off we go," Teddy said.
Vulpix nuzzled up against Paul as he seemed to be afraid of the water.
"Vulpix, are you afraid of swimming," Paul asked.
"Just concerned I might drown......" Vulpix shivered.
"I'll make sure you don't drown," Paul said.
Vulpix nuzzled up against him. "I miss Mum..."
"It's alright, Vulpix, it's alright," Paul consoled as he hugged his Fire Fox Pokemon.
Sure enough, they made their road out. Latias was leading ahead of them on the road to where the others were, especially her brother.
"Hopefully, this will be easy," Vulpix said.
Misty admired Ash's abilities, but she seemed to be getting over a crush that she had on him since they had first met.
"We should try to help them," Jessie said.
"Luckily I had a big breakfast," James said before he took out a paddle to help.
"Same here," Meowth said as he joined him.
"Then let's go," Jessie said.
James and Meowth paddled as hard as they could to join the others in the rescue mission for Latios.
"I hope Thumbelina's alright..." Mismagius sighed.
"I wish she's alright," Carrie said.
"INCOMING," Teddy cried out in despair once he saw a certain Pokemon in the air, "AERODACTYL!!"
"Oh, dear," Latias gasped until she was caught by the Pokemon.
"Hey, get away from her," Charlie frowned as he stepped on the stern of the gondola and jumped onto the Aerodactyl's back.
"Go, Charlie," Carrie cheered.
"Get away from Latias," Charlie frowned at the Aerodactyl.
The Aerodactyl was becoming difficult.
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt," Ash commanded.
Pikachu charged himself up and zapped against the Aerodactyl.
Charlie chuckled. "That tickles!"
"Of course it does so," Emi grinned.
"Oh, dear! Latias," Charlie gasped as the Pokemon fell into the water.
"Latias," Pikachu cried out in .
Then Charlie dove in to save Latias while turning into a merboy. Carrie began to pray for Latias. Charlie looked all around for Latias while under the water. A glowing spirit animal seemed to rise behind Carrie to empower her.
"The Grand Spirits....they have responded my prayers," Ingrid looked with her Kabutops.
"That's grand," Kabutops said.
"Thumbelina, thou shall be punished and not exist..." a sharp female voice called.
"Who's that," Carrie wondered.
A beautiful blonde woman with a golden crown and a green dress glowered.
"That's the Enchantress that King Colbert warned us about," Paul recognized.
"Hello, meddling children," the Enchantress frowned.
The Pokemon began to attack the Enchantress.
The Enchantress laughed at them before waving her scepter back at them, which froze them into ice cubes. "Silly little creatures..." she mocked them, "this is all very pointless as my descendants Annie and Oakley will rule the world starting with Alto Mare."
"Why, you evil witch," Carrie frowned.
"Oh, if it isn't the little Sugarplum Princess," the Enchantress smirked, "what're you going to do? Twirl in a tutu for me to death?"
Carrie began to recite a spell that she learned from her spell book. The Enchantress laughed as she caused chaos for all of them.
"King Colbert was right," Mismagius frowned, "you bewitched him during the curse, you made him evil during the spell! He used to be a very nice man and almost like a father figure for Prince Adam and you changed him!"
Soon the Enchantress was starting to turn to ice by the spell Carrie was reciting. "What are you doing here, child?!"
Carrie didn't respond to her as she continued the spell to get rid of her. After a while, the Enchantress was now an ice statue.
"Phew," Carrie wiped her forehead, "Aunt Twilight's right, that spell is a piece of work."
"What have we done with her," Paul asked.
Vulpix came behind the ice statue and lifted his back leg.
"Vulpix," Paul laughed.
"I say we send her into space," Emi said.
"That sounds like a fitting punishment," Carrie agreed.
"Then she doesn't bother anyone ever again," Emi folded her arms firmly.
"I'll throw her into space," Ash said.
"That's right, Charlie's energy boost," Emi grinned to her brother.
"Yes, Charlie seems busy at the moment, where I'll do the honors," Ash decided. Soon the young, aspiring Pokemon trainer growled for show and lifted up the frozen enchantress before throwing her like a football into space.
"Looks like Circe the Enchantress is blasting off again~" Mismagius smirked.
"Nice one," Meowth smirked back.
"Thank you," Mismagius chuckled.
Soon Charlie came out from under the water and a spirit animal seemed to glow behind him.
"Uh, Charlie, I think I see your spirit animal," Emi said once she noticed.
"What," Akito turned around to see a wolf that almost looked like Balto.
The spirit animal turned back and howled toward Charlie.
"Grandmother must be channeling us from home," Ingrid pondered.
"Cool, Charlie's spirit animal is a wolf," Paul grinned.
"They shall all find their spirit animals sure enough," Ingrid said to herself.
"Ingrid, does each spirit animal have a meaning," Emi asked.
"Yes, they all have their individual meaning," Ingrid replied, "usually we hold a ceremony and you are given a totem of your spirit animal to keep for your individuality."
"Well, what does the wolf mean," Ash asked.
"Intelligence, leadership, and stronger sense of family," Ingrid replied.
"That describes Akito in three fashions," Carrie grinned.
Aerodactyl snarled as soon as he came back.
"RUN," Ingrid warned the others.
"You heard her," Jessie warned them.
Then they all rushed to avoid the evil fossilized Pokemon.
"See ya," James laughed at the evil Kabutops and Aerodactyl.
"Grandmother, please don't let them get Latias," Ingrid prayed.
'This seems easy,' Paul thought to himself.
Emi tried to get a hold of Latias and ended up riding her through the water canal like since they were in the race as Aerodactyl chased them in the air.
"Farewell, Aerodactyl," Vulpix smirked at the fossilized evil flying Pokemon.
"Hey, Latias, we lost them," Ash grinned to the dragon-like fashion.
"Sure," Latias beamed.
"Whew," Teddy sighed.
"It's alright, Teddy, we're all alright now," Carrie hugged her Teddiursa.
"Thank heavens," Teddy grinned.
"It's gonna be alright," Carrie soothed like the surrogate mother that she was.
Teddy was thankful to be with her.
"Ash, you kinda seem like a slow swimmer..." Charlie commented, "you could use a boost like in your body strength."
"Yes, I guess I could," Ash said.
"Allow me to help," Charlie smirked, "if anyone's a strong swimmer, it's a member of my family."
"Um, alright," Ash said.
Then Charlie decided to turn Ash into a merboy to help him swim faster.
"Thanks," Ash said.
Charlie grinned and they were able to swim much faster now. Ingrid continued to pray for the Grand Spirits to help her and giving guidance for her friends.
"Looks like we're clear," Carrie grinned.
"Hurry, we have to save Thumbelina, Bianca, her grandpa and Latios," Emi cried out in despair.
"We will," Paul said.
"Corsola, we need your help," Emi called out before tossing her Pokeball to unleash her and Misty's newest Pokemon.
Corsola came out and landed into the water to go with them.
"Oh, Corsola is pretty......" Charlie grinned to the coral-like fashion.
"I know, right," Emi also grinned.
Soon the evil Kabutops was chasing the others. Then Ingrid's Kabutops tackled him down with a frown and decided to fight him.
"Go, Kabu," Ingrid cheered.
"There's something somewhat familiar about this..." Emi muttered about the two Kabutops' fighting each other. Soon her mind seemed to go back into the past.
With Simba and Nala, they made it to the entrance.
"Nala, you find my mother and rally the lionesses," Simba spoke, "now you see me, now you don't."
Nala nodded and the two split. Simba sneaked up towards Pride Rock and hid near some boulders as thunder rumbled once more. Suddenly, a loud frustrated voice split through the air.
"SARABI!!" Scar called.
This yell was so loud that it echoed across the kingdom. Simba gasped that his mother was called off. Scar's back was only about ten feet below us. In the crowd, Sarabi was walking up, passing the hyenas. She didn't even mind the hyenas as they growled, barked or tried to snap at her. Thunder smashed as she reached the top. Simba was saddened to see his mum changed, but concerned as well.
"Yes, Scar," Sarabi asked.
"Where's your hunting festival," Scar asked, "they're not doing their job."
"Scar, there's no food. The herds have moved on," Sarabi responded.
"No, you're just not looking hard enough," Scar argued.
"It's over. There's nothing left," Sarabi explained, "we have only one choice. We must leave Pride Rock."
"We're not going anywhere," Scar yelled, very annoyed.
"Then you have sentenced us to death," Sarabi yelled, upset.
"Then so be it," Scar growled in Sarabi's face.
"You can't do that," Sarabi yelled.
"I am the king! And I make the rules," Scar scoffed.
"If you were half the king Mufasa was––" Sarabi argued.
Scar lost his temper as he slapped Sarabi. "I'm TEN TIMES the king Mufasa was!"
Sarabi got knocked back. Simba's eyes widened in realization. A flashback showed Mufasa falling to his death while young Simba watched in horror.
"NoooooOOOO," Young Simba shrieked. "Noooooo," Adult Simba yelled, jumping up and pinning Scar down on the floor, "MURDERER!!!"
"Emi," Carrie asked, "are you alright?"
"Just...thinking..." Emi said as she held her head, "I just felt already seen with that Kabutops against Ingrid's."
"Same here," Ash said.
"Was it perhaps a journey you guys had before you met us," Charlie asked.
"I'm not sure..." Ash rubbed his head, "could it be? No luck, it couldn't be, how wouldn't we remember it?"
Emi simply shrugged. Charlie and Carrie looked very curious of this, but they didn't say anything as they had their cousin to concern about right now.
Thumbelina frowned as she looked miserable, who was weeping as she felt like she had doomed Latios and Latias.
"Don't lose hope, darling," Bianca's grandfather said, "all hope is not lost."
"I've failed Latios and Latias..." Thumbelina sighed, "I can't do anything right...I bet my cousins are only nice to me because Emelius Browne makes them...Emelius Browne is my mother's best friend."
"I doubt that, besides, the only fashion anyone would be able to get free from these webbings is if one of us had unholy strength," Bianca said.
Thumbelina only sighed as she was stuck in place with them before her eyes widened. "Did you say 'unholy strength'?"
"Yes, someone strong like Superman or something," Bianca replied, "your cousin Charlie seems as strong as him, but perhaps even a vampire."
"Oh, Bianca..." Bianca's grandfather sighed at the mention of vampires.
This gave Thumbelina an idea. Bianca and her grandfather looked down at first. Thumbelina channeled all her rage and her fangs burst out as she stretched and began to break through Ariados's webs to free them all and where she was able to free them. Bianca and her grandfather looked in shock.
Thumbelina grinned as she was able to save them before she frowned toward Annie and Oakley. "Now, to face these two...." she hissed in frustration. Soon she saw one of them actually looked afraid.
"There she is," Oakley smirked as she found Latias before finding Ash and the others, "ugh...not these children again."
"Yes," Thumbelina grinned.
Oakley frowned toward Thumbelina. "How did you escape?!"
"You didn't count on my strength from my father's side," Thumbelina snarled as her fangs became prominent.
"I did not see that coming," Annie said.
"It's not too late to stop what you're doing here," Bianca's grandfather warned the brunette-haired girl, "just remove the jewel and Latios, DO IT NOW!!"
"Looks, Dad, I don't care if your town dries up," Oakley smirked, "with this machine, I have the power to control the whole world if I want to."
"I'm going to take that Soul Dew right now," Thumbelina said.
"Oh, I'd like to see you try, you little brat," Oakley huffed.
"Oakley..." Annie whispered as she couldn't believe how dark and demented her sister could be.
Thumbelina was starting to make her road to the Soul Dew, which was starting to change color. Bianca latched onto her grandfather in slight concern.
Thumbelina frowned to Oakley as she didn't let anything stop her. Soon she saw what was going on with the Soul Dew. "Is this normal," she wondered as it changed colors.
"Thumbelina, don't give up, keep going," Bianca begged.
"But the Soul Dew is starting to change color," Thumbelina warned them.
"Looks like I'm going to win this one, you meddling brat," Oakley smirked toward Thumbelina.
"But it's looking creepy now," Thumbelina said.
"Say farewell to your friends, Brat," Oakley smirked as she controlled the waters of Alto Mare which could opponent the fashions of a water-bender such as Katara.
"Oh, dear..." Thumbelina frowned.
"Oh, dear," Latias cried out in despair as she drove with Ash steering her.
"Oh, my heavens," Pikachu cried out in grief as he was on Ash's shoulder.
"Uncle Triton must be frustrated," Charlie's eyes widened.
"I don't think this is Uncle Triton," Carrie warned her twin brother.
"I agree," Paul said.
"It's not," Ingrid crossed her arms, "it's Oakley controlling the DNA...I can sense her from here, and Thumbelina is trying to get the Soul Dew."
"That's our cousin," the Rowling siblings grinned.
Three figures were hidden after they saved Circe from being sent into space.
"Our sister has failed us, she is such a fool," the tallest of the figures frowned at the frozen Enchantress, which was her youngest sister.
"What have we done though," the other figures asked.
"We have to hope our descendants don't let Thumbelina Precious Chantal Colbert win," the first figure replied, "she shouldn't even exist."
"And if she does win," the other figures asked.
"Circe will just have to try harder, she brought this out on herself with her insane jealousy of making King Colbert the most powerful servant in the castle during that curse she brought upon Prince Adam," the first figure sneered.
"That's true," the second figure nodded.
"Hurry up before that wave gets us," Charlie and Carrie cried out in despair.
Ingrid stood in front of the wave and she chanted an ancient Native American spell to make the wave settle down and go away.
"Please work," Teddy prayed.
Ingrid spoke in her native language as her eyes seemed to glow a hot pink color like for the symbol of love and a white aura came around her as a grand bear spirit came behind her and snarled.
"This is amazing," Carrie grinned.
"I summon the Bear of Love," Ingrid warned the Great Spirits of her people.
"The Bear of Love," Ash asked out of confusion.
"Not gonna get away this time," Oakley smirked.
Soon Thumbelina's eyes glowed pink like Ingrid's. "By the power of FRIENDSHIP!!"
"Go, Thumbelina," Bianca grinned.
Soon Thumbelina felt herself getting stronger as she caught hold of the Soul Jewel to pull it out. "I am strong like Garnet," she warned herself. "I am wise like Pearl, I am adventurous like Amethyst, and I am a nice soul like Rose Quartz," she removed it. Then she seemed to glow with the gem, though it was the Grand Spirits who formed with the lights that touched the Earth just like in Ingrid's home village. And soon where something was going on to the jewel as it's color was different. "Oh, I hope this is a nice fact..." she hoped hesitantly.
"What is this, Thumbelina," Bianca asked before something happened to the Soul Dew.
Thumbelina jumped down carefully and faster, she usually hang upside down in trees and she would end up getting hurt, but this time, she actually made it down without injuring herself. Soon Bianca's grandfather looked worried about the Soul Dew.
"Grandpa," Bianca frowned in worry.
"We have to get the Soul Dew back into the water before it's no use," Bianca's grandfather said.
"Keep a tight hold, Thumbelina," Mismagius warned her trainer.
"I will," Thumbelina nodded back to her Ghost Pokemon.
Soon Latias nuzzled her brother.
"Sister," Latios grinned up to Latias as they were reunited at last.
"We better get back to the secret garden," Thumbelina said.
Annie seemed to be happy for the others, even if her sister's plans had been foiled. Speaking of her sister, she climbed up the DNA to check her out. "Hey, Oakley, festival's over, c'mon, wake up!"
"Guess we lost," Oakley said.
"I think you've had a little in over your head," Annie chuckled.
"A little," Jessie asked.
Soon Annie and Oakley looked to see the ex-members of Team Rocket.
"Well, we did better than you could if you yet worked for Giovanni," Oakley huffed.
"We weren't as evil as you two," Meowth said.
"Besides, I ran far from home to get away from my parents," James huffed.
"Weren't you also supposed to get married to someone," Meowth asked James.
"Oh, don't remind me...." James shuddered, "that girl, so wicked, so vile, so repulsive-looking!"
"Didn't she look like Jessie," Emi asked.
"Erm...yes..." James blushed, which made Jessie look very unimpressed with his reaction about his arranged bride.
"Anyhow, to the secret garden," Carrie announced.
"We'll speak about this later," Jessie warned James before going away.
James sighed hesitantly before catching up with Meowth toward the others. Once at the secret garden, Thumbelina placed the Soul Dew back in its rightful place. Soon the bad Kabutops and Aerodactyl were back as fossilized Pokemon in the Alto Mare museum. Thumbelina bowed her head after putting the Soul Dew back where it rightfully belonged. A golden gemstone known as a scapolite seemed to shine around her neck and it became a necklace as a reward for her brave doings on this adventure.
"Wow," everyone grinned.
Thumbelina grinned and stood up, coming back to the others.
"Did you always have that necklace," Mismagius asked, "it doesn't look familiar."
"That is her reward for being such a best friend and helper this time around," Princess Celestia's voice said.
"Princess Celestia," Thumbelina asked.
Soon the alicorn princess appeared before them all as she flew into their sight and came down in front of Thumbelina. "I've wanted to test your independence," she warned the young girl, "you remind me so much of your mother if she was younger and didn't think she would be anywhere without your Emelius Browne, especially from the criticism of Sid Phillips."
Most of the group who knew who Princess Celestia was, bowed/curtsied to her.
"You are all so wonderful, just like your parents," Princess Celestia smiled.
"Princess Celestia, is it true that Daddy and Aunt Twilight were very close," Carrie asked.
"Oh, yes, of course, Emelius was like a new brother for Twilight since Shining Armor's in Canterlot with Cadence and little Flurry Heart," Celestia grinned back.
Soon Paul noticed the others hadn't bowed or curtsied at Princess Celestia. "Do you not know who this is, you pigs," he asked in a melodramatic tone, "this is Princess Celestia of the one and only Equestria!"
"Oh, Paul," Princess Celestia chuckled to his reaction.
Once the rest of the group realized this, they bowed and curtsied.
"Oh, Paul, you little melodramatic fact, you," Princess Celestia grinned to the eldest Rawlins sibling.
"He's an artist," Charlie smirked teasingly.
"I was just trying to let them know how serious this was," Paul said.
"You seem to be like a male version of Rarity sometimes," Princess Celestia noted.
"Is it because of the scarf," Paul folded his arms, "Jenny got this for me!"
"And it's a lovely scarf," Princess Celestia grinned.
"That is, isn't it," Paul grinned down to his green ascot.
"Green, that color suits you, it goes well with your eyes," Princess Celestia grinned back.
"Princess Celestia, as this adventure is coming to an end, I would like to ask you if you help me contact the Grand Spirits of my people where I can visit my grandmother Tanana's tribe in time for Kenai's ceremony," Ingrid bowed her head before the alicorn princess.
"Of course, my darling, it is about time for this adventure to be drawn to a close," Princess Celestia agreed.
"Aww," everyone else frowned.
"I'm sorry, but it is time to get going," Princess Celestia replied apologetically.
"Well, fine," everyone sighed.
"Time for your farewells, you all," Princess Celestia said.
"Oh, but I have a question," Emi warned her, hoping she could respond, "lately, I've been seeing two Pokemon in my head. Mewtwo and Mew, like we've met before and there was a fight between doubled Pokemon and it was so heartbreaking."
"Oh, Mewtwo must've erased your memories after that event..." Princess Celestia sighed, "Mewtwo erased all memory from you all from that adventure where he could hide."
"Ohh," Emi said.
"It really wasn't a dream..." Ash's eyes widened.
"I warned you so, Ash," Emi firmly pouted to her older brother.
"I guess you were right," Ash said.
"Please don't get in a fight," Charlie hoped.
"Ah, Charlie, Ash and I might have our differences, but we'd never get in a fight like you and Carrie," Emi grinned.
"We don't get into fights," Carrie said.
"That's what I mean," Emi grinned, "you two are perfect the fashion you are just like I am with Ash."
"Oh, if I could count all the times Luna and I had our differences, we'd be here all day," Princess Celestia sighed.
"We know, our dad warned us since you and Luna became a friendship problem," Charlie said.
"Oh, yes, that..." Princess Celestia remembered, "one of Starlight Glimmer's first assignments."
"Yes," Carrie nodded.
"I'll miss you so much," Emi latched onto Charlie's shoulders and nuzzled up against his face.
"Oh, Emi..." Charlie blinked with tears in his eyes, "I'll miss you as well."
Soon the two of them kissed.
Princess Celestia grinned proudly.
"Will my soulmate and I be like that," Carrie asked.
"Carrie, you and your special somebody will love each other to infinity and beyond," Princess Celestia promised.
"Aw," Carrie grinned.
"Now, allow me to send you all home until the next adventure," Princess Celestia said as her horn glowed.
"Alright," Thumbelina said.
Soon Princess Celestia sent them back home until next time.
"I will see you all at the Great Spirits' ceremony," Ingrid whispered as she stood past her Kabutops.
"We better get going to," Emi said.
"C'mon, Emi, don't worry, we'll see each other again soon," Ash promised his sister.
"Yes," Misty grinned. "Besides, you two are soulmates....." she winked to Ash.
"Uhh..." Ash blushed and stammered hesitantly, not sure how to react to that.
"That's true," Emi said.
Soon Charlie, Carrie, Paul and Thumbelina were brought back home.
"Well, Thumbelina, did you have fun with Latios and Latias," Charlie grinned.
"Yes," Thumbelina grinned back. "I have to ride on them and we became friends..." she sighed softly, "I was also able to free myself, Bianca and her grandfather from Ariados's web."
"That's grand," Carrie grinned.
"You see," Charlie grinned, "I warned you that you'd have fun on this adventure."
"And you were right," Thumbelina grinned back.
"And you were useful," Mismagius grinned.
Thumbelina grinned bashfully and shuffled her foot. "I even had to face the Enchantress."
"Circe was there," Price asked out of surprise, "huh...no doubt her sisters must've done something to help destroy you."
"Circe has sisters," Thumbelina asked.
"Yes, your father warned me about them ages ago," Price replied, "Lucinda, Ruby and Martha. I believe Triton even said that they once worked with Ursula as well."
Thumbelina gulped hesitantly as she hoped she wouldn't have to run into them if they worked for Ursula of all people, even though that sea witch was long gone by now.
"Not to mention that Snow White's father, King Leopold, was their cousin," Price continued, "they seem to be responsible for a lot of evil if it comes to the villains your uncle and I have faced."
"It seems so," Thumbelina said.
"Be wary of who you meet, Thumbelina," Price replied, "Circe lusted for your father...I found that out during Belle's wedding to Adam."
"That story reminds me so much of Shining Armor and Cadence's wedding," Thumbelina commented.
"Ah, yes, that was such a lovely affair," Price said, "I guess, that is, until I was sent away with Cadence with these impostors."
"That's true," Charlie said.
"Oh, Mrs. Eglantine Price, is Dad around," Carrie asked.
"Yes, he has a phone call, I'm hoping his boss gives him some time off where we can do something together as a family," Price replied, showing she had a sweet side to her.
"Same here," Paul said.
Emelius came over with a big grin. "Guess what?"
"You've had laid," Price said.
Emelius gaped at her and she just smirked.
"No," Emelius said before grinning to his children, "I can take some time off for a family vacation! Where should we go?"
"Huh..." the children hummed.
Soon Charlie remembered what Ingrid warned him if she came to help. "Um, Dad," he asked, "could we visit Ingrid where her grandmother lives? I promised that we'd visit if she helped us against Annie and Oakley."
"Where does her grandmother live," Emelius asked.
"She said something about where the lights touch the Earth..." Charlie tried to think as Ingrid wasn't very specific and didn't say, which meant exactly.
"She must mean the Northern Lights and a mountain," Price said.
"That's what I'm getting from this..." Emelius replied, "yet in North America, but very far north, even farther than where Balto lives."
"Ah, Balto..." Charlie grinned, "I wish I could've kept him as a pet."
"Hey," Scruffy pouted.
"No offense, Scruff, I love you, you're my best friend, I would never replace you," Charlie hugged his dog.
Charlie grinned back before he laughed as Scruffy licked his face.
"I'm so happy you're eventually off work," Price said to Emelius even though she wasn't grinning, "you could use a break. You're starting to get gray hair."
"No, he isn't," Thumbelina said.
"Yes, he is..." Price said before she plucked out a gray hair out of Emelius's dark brown hair.
"Oh, I was just concerned that this would be like Zadavia and Optimatus since I've been working overtime lately," Emelius replied, "by the way, thanks for letting me work with Detective Bullock during these times with Bruce."
"I thought you'd like that," Price replied.
"Who," Larvitar asked.
Emelius took out a book to see if he could teleport them to Ingrid's grandmother's village.
"Now, let's see if I know the right spell," Emelius said. He checked the teleportation spells and soon found one that would allow him to take them to a location he didn't know exactly was since Ingrid didn't specify where her grandmother lived. "Ah, right there..." he took out a highlighter and ran it through the spell to remember for later until the family would be ready to go.
"This is going to be grand, I just know it," Charlie grinned.
Emelius grinned back. "I'm emotional about the ceremony, I just love other cultures."
"Is that why you can speak other languages, Daddy," Carrie asked.
"That and to understand what people from other countries who don't speak English are saying," Emelius said.
"That's so cool, you must've had a lot of language skills tutoring," Carrie replied.
"Yes, it took some time," Emelius grinned, "back in the old days, I had my Equestrian medallion to translate other languages to me like since we visited Tokyo with the Teen Titans."
"Where can we go see Ingrid," Charlie asked.
"I think you all should rest up at home first before you go anywhere, travel can make you quite weary," Price advised.
"Alright," the children and Pokemon said.
"For in these days, always in such a rush," Price muttered to Emelius.
"I know, right," Emelius replied.
Soon the children went with their Pokemon until the next time.
"Would you like to come," Emelius asked Price, "you seem stressed."
"Oh, Belle's been so busy with Adam lately," Price said. "Meetings here and there, throwing festivals, it's like Cinderella all over again, only this time, no Prudence," she smirked at the last bit.
"That's true," Emelius smirked back.
Soon Price and Emelius laughed as they didn't have to concern about Prudence anymore as she seemed to make the royal treatment seem to be more of a royal pain if they first moved into the castle with Cinderella after she married the Prince.
"Well then, you'll come with us," Emelius asked.
"I suppose that would be nice..." Price agreed, "I wish Cogsworth can manage through Belle and Adam's busy schedule."
"Ah, that old man likes being in charge any matter," Emelius shrugged.
"Oh, don't get me started on that one time..." Price wagged her finger.
"OK, that's it," Emelius said.
There was going to be a big adventure for everyone once they would visit Ingrid's grandmother's village, but that was a story for another time.
