Chapter 8: Boom!
(Thunderheart’s p.o.v.)
I looked over a large hill, and saw the red building, which was the facility.
“Of course, the not-so-obvious red building with an easy way to penetrate the chainmail fence that surrounded it. That Goodra better have been right, otherwise, I won't make it to Sinnoh…” I said talking with the thoughts in my mind.
I approached a vent near the southside of the building.
The vent was very dusty, and old, just like everything else that I saw inside.
There appeared to be multiple floors going underground.
I didn’t know whether not to go in with explosions and fire or whatnot, but the thought kinda made me feel satisfied.
There’s something that felt so familiar in this building though, I didn't know what it was, but it had a sense of nostalgia.
“I don’t remember this place, but i feel as if i’ve been here before… Deja vu?” I asked myself.
Making my way through the vents of the underground complex, i thought to myself about this place, of how none of it was recognizable, but yet i felt like i’ve known for a long time.
“This can’t be the place that i was held at in my past, or is it? I don’t know, it's all too confusing now.
I peered through the vent and looked into the hallway below me,as people passed by, and a woman, then turned around which made me see her face.
I then suddenly backed away immediately.
I knew at that split second who the woman was, Lusamine, the president of the Anther foundation.
All those days and weeks ago, when I saw her face, back when I hid in my cage, cowering, not knowing what to do.
“Lusamine…” I whispered, even though she couldn’t hear me or understand me.
She then walked away into another hallway.
I then snuck out of the vent, since there were no more vents to venture and sneak through.
I knew I was at the bottom floor, since the elevator nearby only had an arrow pointing up.
I walked through the hallway, still being on guard and watching for people that guarded the hallway.
I then heard footsteps getting closer, so I jumped up to the ceiling to hide on top of some pipes.
As usual, more guards passed by below me, not noticing me one bit.
I then jumped down to the floor and continued going down the hallway, looking for that Dragonite.
Then i heard an alarm go off…
“Security breach, security breach, maintain a security level of five.” Said an intercom.
I thought I triggered a sort of tripwire, or maybe a security camera saw me, but no, it wasn’t me.
I then heard a large explosion right above me, and the floor caved in and fell on top of me.
While kind of surprised and hurt from that mysterious explosion, i then looked up to see something I wouldn't have expected in all my life…
Necrozma.
Necrozma flew down to the cages nearby and blew one open, and snatched a pokemon from inside, which appeared to be a Manaphy.
Confused, i crawled out of the rubble, amazed at what I just saw and extremely puzzled.
Then, while Necrozma was leaving the complex, it threw a large shadow ball at the building and hit it with such force that it all almost collapsed immediately.
“We need to get out of here!!!” Said a person on the floor above me.
I then looked around frantically, looking for the Dragonite that was supposed to be here, before the whole building collapsed.
Then, at the corner of my eye, I saw a cage in another hallway, and in it, was the Dragonite.
I then rushed over to get the door open.
“Hey, i’m here to get you out of here…” I said without knowing of anything else to say.
“Who are you, and why are you helping me?” Said the Dragonite.
“Goodra sent me… It said that you could give me a lift if i could bust you out, but apparently, another pokemon did that for me…” I said.
I then gave her a stern look, because it was obvious that danger was in the midst and the building was about to collapse.
“I need you to take me to Sinnoh!” I said opening the door.
She hesitated for a moment but then stepped out of the cage.
“Fine, but let’s hurry up and get out of here!” She said flying up through a hole in the first three bottom floors.
I then climbed up the first bottom floor, attempting to reach the surface, but the building crumbled even more.
After a few minutes of crumbling and climbing, I finally made it out.
“Come on, let’s hurry up and go, I need to be free once again…” Said the Dragonite sounding like she hadn’t seen the world for more than a decade.
I got on, and she slowly lifted off the ground, only for me to hear a voice calling for help.
“Wait! There’s someone still in there!” I said.
“Who cares! They locked me up, and I'll never help them for what they did.” Said the Dragonite.
I then hesitated for a moment, but then i jumped off her, saying: “Well, i’m not that way…”
I fell to the ground, running towards the building.
The Dragonite then landed calling for me to get away from there.
I didn’t listen, and ran faster towards the building.
I jumped down the first few floors as they crumbled away.
I could hear the voice getting louder, yet getting more familiar.
Then, I saw her…
Lusamine.
She didn’t have her eyes open, as if she had already given up her life.
I lifted her up, and slowly made my way up to the surface.
The building got more unstable by the second, making my escape harder.
I then reached the surface, with Lusamine in my arms, as the building finally collapsed fully.
I then set her down, and stared at her for a second.
She then opened her eyes and gave me a weak, surprised look.
“Thunderheart……” She said slowly as she sat up staring at me in the eyes.
She struggled reaching her hand out to my face.
I felt her hand on my face, it felt weak, and dusty, and cracked from the destruction.
“You… saved… my life… Why?” She said slowly.
I wanted to speak, but i wouldn’t know what would happen.
“Thank you…” She said.
I then grabbed her hand softly and placed it on her chest, as other people approached my position.
I then quickly got up and ran to Dragonite.
“Let’s go…” I said quickly.
Dragonite then flew up before the people could catch up to see what happened.
I stared down to see her lay on the ground slowly waving, so I implied a short, yet noticeable wave.
After that, Dragonite went up to supersonic speed.
"What was all that about!?" Said Dragonite.
I was still looking back.
"I-I don't know..." I said now looking at the wreckes facility instead of Lusamine.
"You should've let her die in the rubble, i bet she is like any other human." Said Dragonite.
" i'm not like that, i don't tolerate myself to do such thing, to leave any person behind sounds rediculous and non humble. " I said.
Then, with awkward moments of silence, we quieted down.
Flying again, into the unknown, into the storm, I awaited the worst.
My journey would not end until peace was given, and until I was reunited with my friends.
This mission should not and will not fail, and I'll make sure of it.
