//------------------------------// // Chapter 2: Swordsman without the swords // Story: Harmony of Tao // by Tehpootisman //------------------------------// Chapter 2 “Prepare the teleporter for interdimensional travel, at once!” The booming voice could be heard over the intercom. Everyone rushed to prepare the base for the teleport experiment. These people were the Rockets. They steal Pokémon just for profit, and they’ve been at it for so long. Today, they were testing out a new device, a teleporter with the ability to go to other worlds, no matter if these worlds were in other dimensions or far off in the universe. One grunt looked at the available Pokémon fast asleep in the holding area. “I suppose we use TRU2, she’s the strongest one out of all of them…” The grunt picked up the sleeping Umbreon, whose rings were white, thanks to some other experiments they did. Meanwhile while the teleporter was finished charging. The grunt put the now-awake Umbreon on the glowing pad, and left it there as she went through a metal door, which then locked the little Pokémon in the teleporter room. “All systems are ready and charged. Begin the teleportation procedure.” The pad began to glow a bright orange as the fabric of the universe was beginning to form a wave of energy, swallowing up TRU2 in front the grunts’ eyes, who were watching through the viewing glass. --------------------------------- They had been caught off guard, but nonetheless, they fought back pretty well against the…strange wooden wolves. “Hey Crimson!” Skyereo shouted. “Looks like as if someone’s experiment went haywire!” “I suppose you’re right about that, my friend.” Nobody could really tell if Crimson either has very few visible emotions or they are always mental. They do know he does have some, but rarely are they major. But he didn’t really show much evidence of being amused, although it was there. Mentally. Meanwhile, Reshi just stood there, the little Reshiram being impatient, tapping her foot. Five wolves ganged up in front of her, which is what she expected. Without hesitation, Reshi opened her mouth and began to form a fireball, as the wolves came closer. With a smug look in her eyes, she unleashed her Flamethrower attack, catching the forest predators on fire. So far, Skyereo had his fast reflexes to punch and kick the wolves, but now he was itching to use his swords. Reaching for his sword holder, he pulled out…A scythe. “You’re telling me…I LOST MY SWORDS IN THAT INTER DIMENSIONAL TRAVEL THING?!” “I’d be more worried about how mad Sam is gonna be when she finds out…” Skyereo didn’t care. He had used one before, and he was pretty decent with it. Spinning around, he sliced up the wolves, which yelped in surprise. At this point, there weren't too many left, save for a few stragglers. "Well, that was one helluva ass-kicking. Too bad they didn't give us a better challenge..." It's moments like these when one is proven wrong. And proven wrong he was. "If thou wish to have a challenge....THEN BE IT!" A dark, yet familiar energy flowed out of the dark, gloomy looking surroundings as the bits and pieces of the Timberwolves, which then jammed them together like puzzle pieces. "Oh, I've spoken too soon, haven't I?" "Not the first time, but not your last, either." ---------------------------------------- "Oooh, shiny!" A young looking, purple maned Eevee was staring at the shiny rip in the air. "I wouldn't touch that, Mitzi!" Yelled the yellow-eared female Leafeon with small white feathery wings that weren't that strong but were still useable for one her size. "Honey is right, you know..." Muttered a exhausted red-eared Leafeon who was also a female. "This is why you pay for child support, mothertrucker." A Umbreon with hot-pink rings joked, much to the red-leafed fox's irritation. "Shut up." "Oh, crap, she touched that thing." "Weeeeee!" God, the things kids can do, but there was no time to worry about that. Whatever that thing was, she just got sucked into it. So there was pretty much no choice but for the annoyed older females to just follow the Eevee into this..portal..thing... ------------------------------------------ "Bleh, welcome to thou doom, Sky Q.." Cackled a male voice, despite the fact the being was genderless. The creature was quadruped, with a dark purple body, with leaves for ears and tail, each bottom half of the leaf being blue, the top half being red, and in the middle, the two colors are separeated by a very thick line of Electric Lavender, and the eyes were also multicolored with red eyes, with the pupils also being Electric Lavender and blue, once again in half, and the pupil a deep, piercing black. It grinned evilly as it mentally watched the events unfold... "I will...and I SHALL..get my thirst for total revenge quenched!
