Part 8

As the moon rise and the star were shining in the dark peaceful night above the campsite, the scientists gathered in the main tent and staring to analyzing their researches.

Meanwhile, Delia and Ash had other matters to attend to.

Del: Ash, you're my only son and you know I don't want anything

to happen to you. Even, when you go off to accomplish your

great dream as a pokemon master.

I also worry about you getting hurt during your travels.

Ash: I know, mother, but you have to understand being a trainer

needs dedication, hard-work and travel from one region to

another. You also know that that kind of life has its risks.

Del: Do you think I didn't know? But as you grow I realized you

look more like your father. Always loving, courageous and

adventurous. Until the day our lives changed and all become…

Ash: But, mother, Fyrice has changed! Now he's my pokemon,

friend and an alley to this fight.

Del: He's responsible for your father's death, Ash!

Ash: I know! But you always said to give a second chance to

everyone, even to those who had done terrible mistakes in the

past.

Del: I don't want to hear this, Ash. I just I don't want you to end up

like your father did.

Ash: I'm almost 19 years old and that means I am an ADULT!

Which also means, I won't stay under my father's shadow

ANYMORE!

I can ASSURE you I will not END UP like him!

With that he turned and went to the tent to see the others without looking at his mother's tearful eyes.

De: Oh, Ash…

She said as a tear roll down her cheek.

Ash approached the tent and the scientists had figured out some things.

Ashura: As you can see Prof. Oak, from the hieroglyphics on this

black ruby sphere, it's written in Braille language.

Den: And means " Unknown will take the beast into its slumber",

Except we don't know what it means.

Oak: Meanwhile, we're analyzing the new pokemon. It could help

us to restrain him.

Elm: From the computer analysis say that Blaizion is a fire-dark

type pokemon. His attacks until now are:

Stomp, Flamethrower, Thunderwhip and Crunch.

Br: But if it’s a dark type why is it afraid of the dark?

Oak: Because he is much stronger under sunlight.

Some pokemon use a special attack called Sunny Day to get

stronger, others who don't, well they have to wait until sunrise.

Elm: Nice theory, Prof. Oak.

Oak: Why, thank you…

Pikachu saw Ash approaching the tent and happily jumped onto his shoulder.

Pikapi! Pi pi pi? (Ash! What's wrong?)

Ash: It's nothing, Pikachu.

When he entered, Misty saw him and smiled as he smiled back to her. She realized that he was sad and his mind is troubled.

Elm: Ah, Ash! Fyrice's tests have gone well and I analyzed him.

Sorry if I didn't take any authorization from you.

Ash: It's okay, Prof. Elm.

Oak: It seems that Fyrice is a water-ghost type pokemon.

Could you let him out, so we could ask him a few questions;

It's really important.

Ash: Sure. Fyrice, come out!

The red beam emitted from the pokeball and then a pokemon appeared in front of them.

Ash: Fyrice, they would like to ask you a few things.

Fyr: Of course. Please, proceed with your questions.

Alec: Well, we've found this sphere a little while before he woke up. Do you know what it means?

Fyr: "Unknown will put the Beast of Sun into slumber."

Alec: We know that, but what is the "Unknown"?

Elm: Wait a sec- Unknown…of course!

Ashura: What is it, Prof. Elm?

Elm: Prof. Oak, the wooden box I gave you had to do with the

Unknown.

Br: Is anyone going tell what is this Unknown?

Elm: It's a new mysterious psychic pokemon. We've recently

discovered at the Alpha Ruins and even its body structure is

similar to our alphabet and they've live in a strange habitat.

Br: So that's why you call them Unknown, because you don't know

about them.

Elm: Precisely.

Ash: Do they know any attacks?

Oak: Only one and is called Hidden Power, but it works differently

from each other. We could have known even more if they

haven' t transformed into puzzle bricks.

It looks like a protective spell and I haven't spend time to

even try to break it down.

Fyr: If the Unknown is our only choice of winning Blaizion, I can

summon them here, using my psychic powers.

Fyrice closed his eyes and slowly his body glowed in shimmering blue light, as it sent forth its psychic waves…

Suddenly, Prof. Oak's suitcase sprang to life

And started to bouncing on the ground.

As soon as Fyrice stopped sending psychic waves, the suitcase stopped bouncing.

Fyr: They're in there.

Oak: That is impossible. I didn't put them in there.

Fyr: Unknowns are known for their unknown reasons for actions.

They can sense their need.

Alec: You mean that these puzzle bricks can feel our emotions?

Prof. Oak took out the wooden box, which glowed, blue and then it stopped as it was placed on the table.

Fyr: Yes, but they can also be controlled by our emotions.

Then again is risky.

Ash: Blaizion said that your trainer and you had sealed him into a

stone. Was it Casmir?

Fyr: Yes, which is why the sphere is written in Braile. He was blind.

Ash: But how did he manage to control the Unknown?

Fyr: You don't need eyes to emotionally control something.

Oak: Did he use any special words to release them?

Fyrice just looked down in sadness as he failed to recall these details of his long past.

He answered with a slow shake of his head.

Ash: Prof. Oak, as Fyrice won his last battle with his previous

trainer, then it is time for Fyrice and I to win again.

Oak: Out of the question, Ash. There must be another way,

Blaizion is strong and capable for anything!

Ash: I'm going!

Oak: Look, Ash…

Fyr: Before going any futher, Prof., I agree with Ash.

We and we only must carry out this fight alone.

Ash looked determined and Prof. Oak knew how stubborn Ash can be, so he didn't had any choice but to agree.

Oak: Fine, Ash. I'll step aside.

Elm: But before you go, take this. It's a uniform, which not only protects you from high temperatures, but it's also a total fire proof.

Oak: Wear this too around your wrist. It’s a new type of walkie-

talkie. It gives you extra free movement.

Press this button, in case of emergency it will teleport you

right here.

Ash: Thanks, Prof. Oak and you too, Prof.Elm.

He took his uniform and headed to the tent to change.

Pikachu and Fyrice silently trailed behind him.
