“Cat Scratch Fever! Fury of the Blazing Destroyer!”

An RP between kamehamehadude and eshonen

With the whole area surrounded by a blazing fire, Trey stands face to face with Emerald, determined to save her. By his side stand Ashuro, Victory Knight, Heavy Knuckle and Masked Eagle. Trey grabs his Zanpakuto and throws it aside, not gonna use it again just yet.

Trey: .....I'll save her...

Heavy Knuckle: Good luck with that...

Ashuro: Trey, if you want to save her you can’t afford to hold back; because of the state she’s in right now, she’ll ignore any pain she’s in and will attack you relentlessly. Don’t hesitate and keep moving no matter what happens!

Trey: *nods* I understand. Trust that I won't hold back...

Ashuro: *nods his head at Trey* Hey, Hero Girls, you all be careful as well; you're going to have to rely only on your instincts from here on...

*Neither of them saw when she had moved, but Emerald was suddenly right next to them all as she grabs Ashuro's tail and repeatedly swings and slams him into the ground until he loses consciousness and his body goes limp.*

Emerald: *looks at Heavy Knuckle*...

Heavy Knuckle: S-stay back! .....MOMMY! *starts to run away from her*

Masked Eagle: Heavy, come back! *runs after her*

Trey: ...seriously...

Victory Knight: Welcome to my world... -_-;;

*Emerald instantly appears in front of Heavy Knuckle, grabbing her by the neck and lifting her off of the ground. Masked Eagle comes to the aid of her comrade but is unable to land a single hit on Emerald, who is moving and reacting so fast that it looks like Masked Eagle is trying to fight a hologram. Emerald attacks Masked Eagle by tossing Heavy Knuckle at her, making the two metal armored heroines crash into each other and all the way back to the others where they first started.*

Emerald: *looks at Masked Eagle* …

Masked Eagle: OoO;;...

Heavy Knuckle: …I'm scared…TT_TT *clings to Masked Eagle*

*As Emerald tries to attack again, Eagle and Knuckle both closes their eyes and prepares for impact…but it never happened. Trey, now standing in front of them, had somehow grabbed Emerald's fist as she attacked and is now holding her in place*

Trey: As long as I hold you…you can't run away from me... I'm your opponent now, kitty~ *smirks*

Emerald: Grrrr!!

*Emerald knees Trey in his stomach with explosive strength*

Trey: UGH! …Hehe, is that all? Zaraki's attacks are much more painful…

*Trey smirks and points his other hand's open palm at Emerald's face*

Trey: Hadõ #33: Sõkatsui!

*Emerald is hit by a large amount of spiritual energy in the form of a blue flame. The energy wave is strong enough to send her backwards a few feet, with a dazed look on her face*

Masked Eagle: Kidõ? Didn't know he could use that…

*Emerald stumbles around dizzily as she tries to regain her senses*

Trey: Now to restrain her… Bakudõ #61: Rikujōkōrō!

*Six thin, wide beams of light are summoned and slams into Emerald's midsection, holding her in place. She finds it impossible to move any part of her body at all. Trey pants, exhausted already*

Trey: Phew... That high level Kidõ tires me out... At least I got her. (Note to self, thank Yachiru for spying on Byakuya and teaching me this technique…)

*Trey and Victory Knight notice that Ashuro is still lying on the ground, still breathing but unconcious.*

Trey: Hey, Victory, get Ashuro to a doctor...or maybe Claire, she might be able to help. I'll take care of the rest here.

Victory Knight: Don't order me around... *picks up Ashuro gently*

*Emerald continues to struggle against Trey's Kidõ, but is still unable to break free from it. Gathering as much strength as she can, Emerald makes a loud, ferocious roar that can be heard for miles and miles away, stopping every living thing in its tracks.*

-somewhere far away-

Natsu: ...Did you guys just hear something???

Luffy: I only hear my belly wanting more food...

Kevin: Meh, it might just have been your imagination...

-back with Trey and Emerald-

Trey: AAAAAHHH!!! *covering his ears* God damn that was loud!

*Ashuro wakes up from the roar*

Ashuro: *looks around confused* what happened; what's going on, guys?

Victory Knight: Well, with you unconscious, Trey fought Emerald alone and has managed to restrain her…

*Looks around and sees that Emerald is indeed bound.*

Ashuro: That's good; if we can keep her still long enough, I think I might be able to fix the problem of her condition once and for all. But I'm going to need Trey's help to--

*There was something large flying above the group that lands within their midst. It was an orange dragon-like Pokémon with a flame burning on its tail; accompanying it was a orange monkey that also had a flame on its tail.*

Ashuro: Is that...a Charizard...and a Monferno?

e-chan: Ashuro!

Scooter: Big-BiG trouble!

*e-chan and Scooter run up to the Charizard and Monferno. Both of them take out a Poke Ball and try to recall the Pokémon, but are unable to as they both simply break free of the Poke Ball's beam. Ashuro and the others look on at the sight confused.*

Trey: What now?

Heavy Knuckle: *blinks*

*The Charizard shoots a Fire Blast in the air that explodes into multiple fireballs that fall everywhere, setting more areas on fire. The Monferno uses Flamethrower to attack both Ashuro and Victory Knight who quickly jump out of the way. Both Pokémon looked as if they were in some sort of trance.*

e-chan: I don't know what happened. We were all training together, then we heard that loud...whatever that was, and suddenly our Pokémon went nuts!

Scooter: All of the other trainers in town are having the same problem; the one thing they all have in common is that it's only Fire-type Pokémon that are going berserk and...WHAT'S UP WiTH THiS BLASTED HEAT?!

Trey: Combine fire powers with an aggressive little girl, then you get this… *proceeds to point to the restrained Emerald* wait… *takes a Poke Ball out of his pocket*

Masked Eagle: Was that there all the time?!?!?! Why didn't you use it!!!

Trey: Because a FIRE-type wouldn't be effective in this match, fool! Whatever…it hasn't gone berserk and broken out like yours…

e-chan: Wait...Emerald made that loud roar? It can't be a coincidence; she caused all of this to happen. Somehow she's confused all of the Fire-type Pokémon in the area...both trained AND wild.

*While e-chan speaks, Ashuro is doing his best to avoid the Charizard's barrage of ranged Fire, Flying and Dragon-type moves, Victory Knight is engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Monferno as she blocks and avoid its rapid assault of Mach Punch, Thunder Punch, armor cracking Close Combats and point blank Flamethrower attacks.*

Ashuro: AiEEEE!! DOWN! HEEL, BOY, HEEL! BAD DRAGON, BAD! *gets hit by a Flamethrower attack* HOT-HOT-HOT-HOT!!

Trey: Alright, seems like I got to do something about this... *puts away his Poke Ball and gets out an Ultra Ball instead* Alright, come on out!

*Trey throws the ball and out comes a small, brown colored Pokémon with a big piece of some cotton-like substance covering it. It was a Whimsicott, but it had dark-red horns instead of green*

Heavy Knuckle: .....Eh.....that was kinda anti-climatic...

Masked Eagle: Weird seeing a guy like Trey with that Pokémon

Scooter: Please tell me that thing knows Rain Dance.

Trey: *smirks* ...Scarlet, use Nasty Plot.

Scarlet: *with a sinister looking grin on her face, Scarlet activates Nasty Plot, doubling her SP.ATK*

Trey: And now...Night Daze!

*Surprisingly, as told, the Whimsicott fires a pitch-black shockwave and hits both Monferno and Charizard with the Dark-type attack. Both the Charizard and Monferno look confused as to what just happened.*

e-chan: Oh, I see now.

Trey: Extrasensory!

*Scarlet uses her Psychic-type move on Monferno, tossing it around before slamming it into the ground, hard*

Masked Eagle: It's Super-Effective!

Scooter: Thanks a lot, buddy! Nova, return!

*Scooter is able to successfully call Nova back into her Poke Ball. The Charizard suddenly charges at the Whimsicott who quickly jumps into the air and out of the way...falling right into the Charizard's trap as it uses its long tail to slam the Whimsicott hard into the ground.*

e-chan: Well, Fireworks always was a smart one…

Trey: Darn...She got hit...

Scarlet: *groans, her body slowly changing shape, fully transforming into a Zoroark*

Trey: Illusion's effect is over…

e-chan: Not good! Trey, you've got to call her back, right now!

Trey: Darn it all, return! *calls her back to the ball*

*Fireworks grins smugly over it's victory and begins to take to the air and fly off.*

e-chan: Oh no you don't! *takes a Friend Ball out of his pocket* Maracas, go! *tosses the Friend Ball and a Sudowodo comes out of it*

Maracas: Sudowodo! Sudo-Wodo! Sudo-Wodo! *dances about*

e-chan: -_- I'm...borrowing her from Claire. Maracas, use Smack Down!

Maracas: Sudowodo!

*Maracas tosses a good-sized rock at Fireworks that beans him right in the head, causing him to plummet to the ground and land with a loud thud.*

Fireworks: @w@

e-chan: -o-; Why didn't I do that earlier? Fireworks, return *Fireworks is successfully recalled back into its Poke Ball*

Trey: Good thing that is over... *steps over to Emerald, patting her on the head while smiling sweetly to her* Your safe now...so please, just calm down. *kisses her on the forehead*

Emerald: *calms down* Trey! You've got to get away from me; she's not letting me go! It-it's taking everything I've got to just talk to you now! Please, take everybody and run as far away as you c--ACK! *body goes limp*

Trey: Then don't speak! Save your energy, you'll need it for later… *leans in closer and whispers something to her, though not sure she could hear him, then steps away a bit* My Kidõ should hold her in place…but just be sure… *fires a flare into the air that explodes into the shape of a pair of burning wings* come quickly…

*Ashuro and the masked heroines gather around Trey*

Masked Eagle: So...what's the plan?

Trey: ...I got nothing

Masked Eagle: Oh great...I wonder where Snoopy went with that Oceana girl, though...

Heavy Knuckle: No time to worry about that...

Ashuro: Don't you all think what Emerald said was a bit strange?

Trey: Yeah, kinda...I figured it was just random talk. I mean, if there was anything else about her, you'd tell us. Right?

*insert awkward moment of silence here*

Trey: ......You told us everything, right?

Ashuro: Yes, I told you everything I know; I'm just as confused as the rest of you about what she said.

Heavy Knuckle: …Trey, as I see it, YOU are the only one capable of reaching her-

Masked Eagle: And fight her, of all things…we can't… -.-;

Heavy Knuckle: Yeah, that too…so I guess it is up to you, Shinigami. ^^

Emerald: *wakes up and makes an even louder roar than before*

Ashuro: AiEEEEEEEEEE!! MY EARS!!

e-chan: Dang, that girl has some strong lungs!

Scooter: Please tell me that's not what I think it is...

*In the sky, a Moltress and a Ho-oh appear; they too have been affected by Emerald's roar.*

Scooter: OwO *takes out a variety of different Poke Balls* JACKPOT!

*The Moltress flies into town while the Ho-oh takes aim the group and uses Sacred Fire on them. Before the fiery blast hits them, it is intercepted by an equally strong blast of water that cancels out the attack.*

Snoopy: Sorry I took so long, everybody! It took Rocko some time to make something like this in so little of time.

*Snoopy was there wearing a device that looked similar to the F.L.U.D.D. machine that Mario used in his adventure on Delfino Island. Oceana sits comfortably inside the clear container part that also has two water stones and one tiny ice stone installed in it.*

Snoopy: How are you feeling, Oceana? With the two E-nergy water stones to provide you with an endless supply of water and that tiny ice stone to keep you cool enough so that you don't boil or dehydrate, you'll be safe in there.

Oceana: I'm fine, a little bit more space would've been nice though... But I'm not complaining. ^^

Trey: Wait…are we betting on Mr. Courageous-to-be and that liquified girl to help us out?

Masked Eagle: Hey, don't underestimate him, he is VERY strong.

Victory Knight: *sighs* It's not like we've got anything to lose either… -_-;

*The Ho-oh flies off towards the city and the ground starts to tremor beneath them all.*

Ashuro: ...this just isn't our day, is it?

e-chan: Everyday never seems to be our day lately. -_-;

*From where they all stand, they seeing something humongous arises out of the ground in the middle of the city. It was a Groudon...a SHiNY Groudon who's roar fills the air.*

e-chan: But I thought that Groudon was a Ground-type.

Scooter: I'VE GOTTA CATCH THAT!! *dashes off towards the city determined to catch the colossal Pokemon*

Trey: ...*looks at Emerald* ...I got to stop her then the Pokemon will surely stop too. *starts to step calmly over towards Emerald*

Victory Knight: Boy got guts, I'll give him that… *smiles a bit*

Ashuro: I'm coming with you, Trey; it's a long shot, but I've got an idea *walks with Trey*

e-chan: *Notices the numerous number of fires starting in the city* I think we can leave Emerald to Ashuro and Trey; right now we've got a town full of Fire Pokemon running amok setting everything on fire that needs to be taken care of. Hey, can you four help me gather up trainers to help out?

Masked Eagle: Heh, I'll do things my way! *throws 3 blue spheres up in the air and catches them all with her right hand* Henshin!

*Her armor disolves and breaks down once again, this armor was just as unique as the others. Her usual blue armor part that covered her chest and arms, shrinks together and just resembles a pair of gloves and a fancy looking bikini top. Her legs' armor resembles a pair of light-blue boots and the bottom part of her body was protective by a bikini bottom, matching the first part. Her helmet changes into a more aquatician animal-looking form, perhaps a killer whale. Her body was still covered in the same full-body suit, just that now it was skin-tight instead, and along with the not-so-protective armor, it shows her figure of almost perfectly*

AQUATIC ARMOR!

Masked Eagle: Ready to go!

Snoopy: I'm right behind you, Sensei! (Sensei is SO awesome and beautiful)

e-chan: That'll work too. *cell phone rings* hello? Scooter, you're still alive I see...uh-huh...Chispa is there helping you out? That's good...wait, Entei and Heatran have shown up too...A ViCTiNi?! Wait, it's unaffected by Emerald's roars? Great! Don't get greedy, you two! You can have the Groudon and Chispa can have the Entei and Heatran if she wants them, but I get to catch the Victini! ...don't you "No promises me!" Hey! ...he hung up on me! There's no way I'm going to let the two of them claim ALL of those legendaries! *runs towards the city at full speed*

Heavy Knuckle: I guess I'll just follow those guys. See ya! *follows the others*

Victory Knight: .......Meh, I'll stay here and watch you two.

Trey: We don't need a babysitter... -____-;;

Ashuro: ...how powerful is that Kido of yours supposed to be again?

Trey: Well, I can hold her for about…5 minutes longer, max…at least 4 minutes…

Ashuro: Then you might want to tell Emerald that *points to Emerald who steadily beginning to break the Kido*

Trey: Wha-? Oh, come on...

???: Seems like you need more training, tomato-kun. ^w^

*All of a sudden, Yachiru has appeared and is sitting on Trey's head*

Ashuro: Wait...*gets a better look at what’s happening* She's not breaking through your Kido; she's absorbing it! But how? Not even I can absorb the energy of shinigami.

Trey: EEEEEH???

Yachiru: That's not good…

Emerald: = Pathetic weakling; know your place and don't struggle anymore. This body will soon be mine anyway then you'll be the one locked up instead. =

*Something is completely different about Emerald. Her voice and demeanor have completely changed; she now sounds like a notorious ice-cold killer.*

Ashuro: …no way…I haven't heard that voice in such a long time…

Trey: Friend of yours? -.-;

Yachiru: Shall I get Ken-Chan to help?

Trey: …no, that wouldn't be good at all…

Ashuro: Yes AND no. Yes in the fact that that voice actually does belong to Emerald...and "no" in the fact that when she had that voice, she was not a friend to anybody at all.

*Trey and Yachiru look confused*

Ashuro: This is how Emerald sounded when she was still a Destroyer. That ice cold voice and that rough, arrogant way of speaking is the proof of that. But this is strange; why did she revert back to this mindset? *looks on as Emerald continues to absorb the Kido, further weakening it* I need to get a closer look inside her mind...

Trey: ...You got 2 minutes at max. She'll break out soon...Unless I find another way to keep her restrained and/or trapped...

Ashuro: Perfect, that's more than enough time *grabs Trey and Victory Knights hands* I'm gonna need your help, follow me!

*The stones in Ashuro's hands suck Trey and Victory Knight inside of them before Ashuro dashes up to Emerald*

Emerald: = Are you in that much of a hurry to die? Then allow me to help you! =

*Emerald inhales and shoots a fierce blasts of fire at Ashuro who nimbly dodges all of them. When he's close enough, Ashuro wraps his stretchy arms and legs around Emerald to keep her from resisting any further. Once that's done, he stretches his neck out behind him a few feet to power up his next attack.*

Ashuro: Light Speed...*head shoots forwards with great power*

Emerald: = *struggles* whatever you try now is useless; this body is mine now! =

Ashuro: ...Mind Hack!

*Ashuro head butts Emerald with tremendous force and the time around them both stops completely. Trey and Victory Knight are released from the stones in Ashuro's hands and find themselves next to him on a pathway that leads down a dark hallway.*

Ashuro: We're in; we've got all the time we need to fix this problem once and for all.

Trey: …what the-? We're inside her mind?

Victory Knight: Ashuro, you both disturb and amaze me at the same time.

Ashuro: Emerald going into Destroyer mode at a time like this made me think. I just need to confirm if my suspicion is correct or not.

*Walking down the dark hallway, the three of them see what look TV screens all along the walls, each of them featuring a memory from Emerald's past...a lot of them were of the cruel training her father put her through when she was growing up. The final one they see is of the incident that led to her great fear of sharp objects. All three of them winced in pain as they saw all of those swords fall off of the wall and how each one impales a part of her body, including her arms and legs, basically pinning her to the ground leaving her unable to move a single inch with tremendous amounts of blood flowing from the multiple wounds.*

Ashuro: I...knew her experience was horrific...but now that I actually got to see what happened...*shivers*no wonder she was so afraid of sharp objects.

Victory Knight: Poor little girl...

Trey: My sweet little Emerald... It hurts me hard to see her like this...

Victory Knight: Uh...Wait, how could she survive 3 swords going through-?

Trey: LALALA! Not listening! LALALA! *covering his ears*

???: She survived because of me.

*A voice is heard and the area around them changes into what looks like some sort of arena-shaped dungeon prison. Standing in the center of the area is somebody that looks exactly like Emerald in her Released size body; she gave of an incredibly ferocious and murderous aura*

???: And who do you three think you are coming in here like this WiTHOUT my consent?

Ashuro: Emerald?

???: Yes, I'm Emerald; the REAL Emerald. Not that pathetic waif of a girl who trembled in terror at the mere sight of a blade or a needle over there *points to a locked cell containing a Compact sized Emerald who looks very weak and lifeless and is chained up to the wall* But since if you must call me something, go ahead and use the name you've been calling me for so long.

*Walks towards the trio*

Destroyer: So, for now until I take full control, you can call me..."Destroyer"

Trey: Emerald!

*Trey, totally focused on the compact sized Emerald, ignores Destroyer and is already standing by the cell. Victory Knight groans and shakes her head*

Victory Knight: Stupid Shinigami…

Destroyer: Go ahead and visit her; just don't expect her to say much of anything.

*Trey calls out to the Emerald behind the bars, but she doesn't answer; she continues to look down at the ground with dull lifeless eyes.*

Destroyer: Yeah, that's it, take a nice good look at her; this'll be the last time anybody will ever see her again after I'm done.

Trey: …Tatakau, Jigoku…

*Trey is briefly covered in flames as his zanpakuto appears and goes into its Shikai state. He turns around and glares at Destroyer, eyes filled with hate and anger*

Trey: I. Will. DESTROY! YOU!!!!!

*As Trey screams, a black wing suddenly spouts from his back*

Victory Knight: Huh?! What in the-?! O_O;;

Destroyer: …you can't be serious.

Trey: BAN…KAI!!!!!

*An enormous wave of fire erupts from both Trey and his zanpakuto, sending Victory Knight, Destroyer and Ashuro flying a few feet. As the fire slowly vanishes, Trey is revealed with a pair of black wings, a long black coat and white pants with both red and black markings replacing his clothes. His hair was longer and he had a few armor parts equipped on his body. His zanpakuto was now looking more like a flame.*

Trey: Shonetsu Jigoku!

*Ashuro watches the scene calmly and silently; when Victory Knight sees him doing this, she immediately realizes what's going on and does the same. Both of them knew that trying to assist Trey would do more harm than good at that moment; the best thing they could do was sit and watch how the Destroyer fights and come up with counter measures on how to deal with her.*

Ashuro: I hope he remembers that we're inside Emerald's mind; fighting thoughts are way different than fighting regular opponents.

Victory Knight: I'm sure he does… After all, he's a Shinigami worthy of Captain rank now…

Trey: …Destroyer…I will banish you and make you disappear. You are not the real Emerald; the Emerald I know is kind and sweet. You're not like that… The Emerald I know is real… So now, your fate will be decided by my sword.

Destroyer: …the real Emerald…you…don't know…A SINGLE THING ABOUT THE REAL EMERALD, YOU IDIOTIC SHINIGAMI!!

Ashuro: …

Trey: *thinks* …I'm sorry…that was wrong of me to say that… This form lets me think clearer. You're right…she's not the real one, but you're not the real either; both of you, as a single being. When the two parts of you two join, only then can I call you for fake or real. But know this…Destroyer, Emerald or whatever you want to be called, no matter the form, shape or personality, you're still MY Emerald; a girl that I want to know more about and spend more time with. Maybe I can't change what happened in the past, but I can change what may happen in the future. But I can only do this if you want me to…

Victory Knight: *smiles a bit* Boy got brains after all… What he just said, it was kinda sweet, wasn't it? ^^

Ashuro: It was. It was a good thing that Trey realized this; if he didn't, we were both gonna have to jump in and stop thing before they got even more dangerous.

Destroyer: I…was so lonely in here; I just didn't want to be forgotten, that's all.

Trey: Really? Is that what you wish for?

*Trey steps closer to her, dropping his zanpakuto on the way, now standing almost right in front of Destroyer*

Destroyer: *looks at Trey with big, teary eyes*

Trey: *reaches both his hands out to her* Come here, maybe a hug will make it better?

Destroyer: TTnTT WAAAAAAAAHH!! *allows herself to be hugged by Trey*

Trey: Shhh..... Trey is here for you... *wraps his wings around the both of them while gently holding her close with the hug*

Destroyer: *sniffling* I-I don't know what happened; ever since I took Ashuro's antenna stuck it in my head, things got all crazy and continued to get crazier as time went by. And-and then when I started getting those-those medical injections, I got cut-off completely and found myself here!

*Trey and Victory Knight turn their attention to Ashuro.*

Trey: Ashuro…

Victory Knight: Something tells me that you know something about this…

Ashuro: Emerald, why didn't you tell me something was wrong? I could've prevented this from coming this far!

Destroyer: I-I didn't want to worry you…

Ashuro: I told you what you were doing was dangerous, but you did it anyway! And since it was my antenna, I felt responsible for the entire thing! That's why I kept asking you time after time again if anything was wrong.

*Both Trey and Victory Knight look confused.*

Trey: What?

Victory Knight: Huh?

*The area around them begins to get hotter.*

Ashuro: This bad; bad-bad-bad! Her immune system is failing and her Fire E-nergy is burning her from the inside out!

Destroyer: *body goes limp and loses consciousness*

Ashuro: We don't have much time; I'll explain on the way there! Follow me!

*Ashuro and Victory Knight grab Trey and begin running out of the area, forced to leave both Emeralds behind as they enter a corridor and travel upwards as the heat steadily increases.*

Trey: Hey! What the heck?! Let go off of me!

Victory Knight: No can do, Shinigami.

Ashuro: I know that it’s tough, Trey, but we need to leave them there for the time being. This problem needs to be addressed ASAP; there are two places that we need to get to and we're REALLY low on time!

Trey: …Give me directions; I'll get us there with Flash Step!

Victory Knight: You know that's not such a bad idea…

Ashuro: Well, it should be as close to the top that you can get. We're headed to her actual brain; if we can fix the problem there first, we should be able to give Emerald's life-force enough time for us to get all the way back down to her heart and repair it.

Trey: Brain? Heart? Geez, where is a doctor when we need one... Whatever...

*In the blink of an eye, Trey gets himself, Victory Knight and Ashuro to their destination*

Ashuro: *looks around* There it is! *points to the ceiling/skull top where there are what looks like black roots coming down and going into the brain in a hap-hazard manner* Because of the nature of this problem, only an Aquitican like me can take care of it *focuses his E-nergy into the palms of his hands and places them on Emerald's brain, slowly and carefully beginning to rearrange the roots in it* I have to do this slowly and carefully; one wrong move and it's all over for Emerald; in the meantime, I suppose now is the best time to explain what's going on here.

Trey: I guess it is…

Victory Knight: Just concentrate and don't make any mistakes now…

Ashuro: Alright; in that case…Cell Buunshin! *whips tail in the air and an Ashuro clone*

Ashuro clone: This way, the real Ashuro can concentrate on what he's doing.

Trey: …I'd say "cheater", but I'll let it pass…this once… -n-;;

Ashuro clone: Let me start by asking you two this: do either of you know what those black roots are or where they're coming from?

Trey: No…

Victory Knight: Not really…

Ashuro clone: They're from the antenna on Emerald's head…it used to belong to me before she yanked it out of my head and forcibly attached it to hers *rubs head* man that hurt like crazy; I couldn't maintain my balance for a week after that.

Trey: …You're a weird species, you know that?

Victory Knight: And what are we? *looks at Trey*

Trey: …Good point…

Ashuro clone: When done correctly, attaching an Aquitican's antenna to a non-Aquitican's head, that person will gain the same amount of strength that its host possessed. Emerald always challenged me to fights, and when I refused her demands she'd force me to fight by attacking me; she never won a single one of them, which drove a stubborn destroyer like her to do anything to gain such strength no matter what happened to her in the long run. I would've stopped her, but...

Trey: Don't blame yourself. What has happened has already happened,

Victory Knight: And if she wants to fight sometime after this is over, I guess Mr. Shinigami will be able to do that. ^^

Ashuro clone: *smiles looking a bit more relieved*

Ashuro: ... *corrects the final problem* finished!

*The temperature lowers significantly as the area cools down*

Trey: Good work there, stretchy!

Ashuro: *dispels technique and the Ashuro clone disappears* okay, we've bought some time; all we need to do now is...

*Ashuro blacks out and falls forward; Trey and Victory Knight are able to catch him mid-fall and wake him up again*

Ashuro: ...sorry for that, guys; with both the heat we're feeling inside Emerald, the heat my body is feeling from being so close up on her on the outside of her body, using a lot of E-nergy to keep us in here as well as fixing Emerald up along with the beating she gave me earlier is really wearing me out much faster than usual. And because this all happened before I was able to go get my lunch, I'm very hungry.

Victory Knight: .....You're kidding...

Trey: Well, just leave the rest to me then.

Ashuro: Okay; I've got enough stamina left to fix the final problem inside of Emerald. If you can Flash Step us to the heart we can save her and fix her up once and for all. But we need to hurry before Emerald's antibodies...

*A team of 8 red and white-skinned Destroyer Emeralds show up, ready to fight. Thinking fast, Trey grabs Ashuro and Victory Knight then tries to Flash Step past the antibodies to escape...unsuccessfully as Trey's efforts are stopped almost instantly.*

Ashuro: ...that was Flash Step that they just used right now! But since when can Emerald- *thinks for a moment* oh yeah...she absorbed some of the Kido...-_-;

Trey: *groans* God damn! I can't get too serious here; I'd burn all of this to debris...or ashes...

Ashuro: ...Trey, I can make your Flash Step stronger so we can get to Emerald's heart, but I'm going to need you and Victory Knight to buy me at least 10 minutes when we get there; will you two be able to do that for me?

*The both of them nod and they hold tightly onto each other*

Trey: Scream when you're ready...

*Ashuro transfers all of his remaining strength and E-nergy into Trey to greatly enhance his own natural abilities, making him glow with a majestic white light. Trey feels as if he could walk on air if he wanted too; his strength level was in fact equal to both Kenpachi Zaraki and Byakuya Kuchiki's strength*

Ashuro: *trembles all over* transfer complete; ready anytime!

Trey: Here we...GO!

*Trey moves them all to the location in a flash, tripping over and crashing to the floor as he stops, Victory Knight holds Ashuro and prevents the two of them from falling*

Trey: Woooooaaah..... @w@;;

Ashuro: *body goes limp* that's it; I'm tapped out. Need to recharge...

*Ashuro curls up like a kitten and falls asleep; Trey and Victory Knight try to wake him up, but it becomes obvious that nothing is going to wake him up before he completely recharges. Both of them decide to keep a look out for Emerald's antibodies until Ashuro can wake up and fix the problem with Emerald's heart which was giving off a good amount of heat.*

Victory Knight: *carrying Ashuro* He looks very cute and relaxed like this... ^^

Trey: ..... *sighs, not seeing any sight of either Emerald or Destroyer anywhere*

*Victory Knight happens to look at the stone in Ashuro left hand and sees a clock on it, counting downwards; it was a timer for something. Thinking back to a few minutes earlier, Ashuro said that once they had arrived at the heart, what they were currently standing just a few feet away from, that he would need them to buy him 10 minutes. Seeing as how they couldn't wake him up, the clock must be telling them how close it was to him waking up, which would be in about 3 minutes.*

Victory Knight: ...3 minutes...too bad I don't have an MP3 player with me...

Trey: ...

*Both of them take a moment to get a better look at Emerald's heart; some spots on the outside looked sliced up and they could see three familiar puncture wounds that indicate that it had been impaled at one time. That's when they remember the painful memory they had seen earlier.*

Trey: *closes his eyes and turns to look away, his fist tightened*

Victory Knight: ...Sorry... It must be hard, seeing what your loved one has gone through...

Trey: ...I feel so guilty...swinging a sword around her...all her pain... I just feel like she deserves better...

Victory Knight: Trey...if that's what you feel, then just tell it to her after we're done here. *pats him on his back*

*All three of them sit in silence. When it's finally down to one minute before Ashuro woke up, a swarm Emerald's antibodies show up and charge towards the trio ready to fulfill their one goal, which was to rid Emerald's body of all foreign intruders.*

Trey: O_O;; Oh god...

Victory Knight: ... *after enduring a lot of weird stuff today, Victory Knight couldn't hold herself anymore and shrieks as loud as she could and quickly gets up on Trey's shoulders while holding Ashuro* Make 'em go away! I want to go home!

Trey: HUH??? Since when did you turn into-

Victory Knight: Just do something!!!

*As Trey stuggles to think about what to do, the temperature sudden surges, putting out a tremendous amount of heat as Emerald's heart starts to beat wildly and causing Trey to lose his balance and fall dropping both Victory Knight and Ashuro and making the antibodies disappear. The fall forcefully wakes Ashuro up, leaving him a little dazed and confused until he sees the condition of his surroundings. Everything was literally on fire!*

Ashuro: NO-NO-NO!! I gotta fix this, NOW!!

*Ashuro dashes straight at Emerald's heart and begin repairing it in the same way he did her brain. Trey and Victory Knight look on in amazement and peril as they watch Ashuro work hard despite his body being completely ablaze with fire, basically being burned alive; they desperately want to help him but don't have a clue as to what to do.*

Ashuro: *greatly struggling* a-almost...*vision beginning to go dim* just a lit...little...bit m...more...*getting light headed and losing all feeling in his body* ...done.

*When Ashuro finishes repairing Emerald's heart and releases his grip from it, a giant surge of flames shoots him backwards straight into Trey and Victory Knight. Before the three of them land in what now a raging fire all around them, Ashuro cancels out the technique keeping them inside Emerald, and escape. On the outside, Ashuro is blown away from Emerald's body and lands a few feet away from her. Ashuro frees Trey and Victory Knight from the stones in his hands, completely untouched by the fire, but still completely exhausted. Soon enough, the flames surrounding Emerald die down and disappear, leaving a completely naked Compact-sized Emerald sleeping peacefully on the charred ground, just a few feet away from the tired trio.*

Ashuro: *coughs out some smoke* Trey, can you promise me that you'll do one thing for me once tiny sleeping beauty over there wakes up?

Trey: @_@ ....what do you want, buddy? *shakes his head to regain focus*

Ashuro: Give those buns of hers a proper roasting for putting us through all of this *body twitches a bit*

Trey: Fine with me, I think she owes us to at LEAST take that punishment... -___-

*With Emerald no longer rampaging, the Fire-type Pokemon were able to regain their senses and return to normal. Snoopy was able to put out all of the fires with Oceana's help while Masked Eagle and Heavy Knuckle were able to successfully protect the towns in habitants from harm. Unfortunately, e-chan, Scooter and Chispa weren't able to catch a single one of the Legendary Pokemon that had shown up. When Emerald awakens, she finds herself being held in Trey's arms in a loving and protective way, still naked of course; he ended up taking Emerald to his home due to the fact that her own home had burned down in all of the chaos and Ashuro wouldn't be able undo the damage done until he had recovered 100%*

Emerald: Trey...*reaches out and lightly touches the right side of his face with her left hand*

Trey: *rubs her back in a loving way* Hey... How are you feeling?

Emerald: Better than I've felt in years.

Trey: Guess that's natural, after what I and the others did...

*Trey carefully places Emerald down on his bed, making her lay on her belly. Emerald relaxes herself, having no clue as to what Trey is planning to do*

Trey: *kneels next to the bed and rubs her butt a bit* your house is kinda a mess right now.....You don't mind staying with me, for the time being?

Emerald: No, I wouldn't mind at all.

Trey: *places his second hand on her back to hold her down* Good. Okay, but before that...there is something I have to do... *lightly and almost playfully pats Emerald's butt now*

Emerald: *slowly beginning to realize what's about to happen then gulps* Um, T-Trey?

Trey: Sorry sweetie. *raises his hand* after what we went through today...it's the least you can take as punishment... *slaps his hand down at her butt with a thin layer of flames surrounding it, resulting in an extremely painful spank to her butt*

Emerald: AiEEEEEK!! THAT BURNS!!

Trey: Sorry...but if you just went to the doctor, this wouldn't have happened... *by now, he had spanked her only 5 times, and her butt was already glowing with a dark shade of red*

Emerald: OW-OW-OW! B-B-But...

Trey: However, I thinking I managed to do something good during all of it... (refering to Destroyer) *Continues the spanking despite Emerald's screaming, squirming and kicking around*

Emerald: OW! OOCH! OWWIE! YEOUCH! Trey~ please! Don't you think that this is a little too much?

Trey: *gives her one more slap on the butt, then he stops. He gently lifts Emerald up so he could sit down, and then let her snuggle up against him, wiping her tears* It's over now... *gently strokes her back*

Emerald: WAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

Trey: Shh~ I'm here... *hugs her and covers his hands in cold flames, rubbing her butt gently* Cold fire, an ability I learned after we were done...It came to me all of a sudden...

Emerald: *whimpers softly and clings to Trey*

Trey: There-there..... *rubbing her butt slowly* Do you want anything; food or something to drink, perhaps, a cold bath to cool down? *kisses her on the forehead*

Emerald: *sniffles* would it be alright if we just stayed like this for a little while longer?

Trey: Yeah, I'm okay with that. *kisses her a few times while still rubbing her butt* my little and lovely Emerald...

*A few minutes later, Emerald falls asleep in Trey's arms, obviously still tired from everything that had happened a little while ago. After carefully placing her on the bed and covering her up with a blanket, Trey walks into his kitchen to get himself something cold to drink. Closing the refrigerator door, Trey turns around and happens to look the nearby window to see a little fairy tapping on the glass, wanting to be let in. Opening the window, the fairy flies inside and lands on the table; taking a more detailed look at the fairy, Trey instantly notices that she's a Nekofi as well as Aquitican after seeing the familiar antenna on top of her head.*

???: Phew! It’s so bloomin' hot t'day; I nearly wilted out there I did...

Trey: Uh.....Does this help? *offers his drink to the female Nekofi*

???: Thank you, I'm parched!

*Despite her being only 6 inches tall, the little fairy Nekofi finishes Trey's drink without stopping once.*

???: Refreshing...Oh, silly me; I've done gone and forgot to introduce myself, haven't I?

Trey: No problem, I'll introduce myself first. My name is Trey, Shinigami in training. *is about to offer a handshake, but instead of offering his whole hand, he offers his pinky to the Nekofi instead.*

???: Pleased to meet 'cha, mate! ^w^

*The fairy Nekofi shakes Trey's pinky finger*

Yani: Now then *clears throat* I'm Yani Muffy, professional explorer and all-around adventurer! I come bearing a message for you from Ashuro Kamake.

Trey: Oh, you do? What is it?

Yani: He wrote it all in a letter; hold on while I get it for you.

*Yani unpins a letter attached to her scarf that had been folded multiple times and hand it to Trey. After flattening it out a bit, he begins reading it; the letter says "To Trey, thank you for your help today. Thanks to combined efforts of you, Victory Knight and I, Emerald is no longer in any danger now and in the future. This means that she'll no longer need those yearly medical injections, which in reality cause the entire problem in the first place from not receiving all of the details from Emerald about what was really happening with her body. It'll take too much time explain the finer details and I'm still really tired so we'll save all of that for later. Please be sure to tell Emerald this and also remember to reassure her about her scars and taking her to the beach like we talked about earlier..." Remembering how everything started, Trey realizes that he had forgotten all about asking Emerald out on a beach date. He would make sure to do all of this when she woke up. Trey resumes reading the rest of the letter, becoming pale-faced with fear when he reads the last part of it.*

Yani: Oi! Wot's wrong with ya, guy?

*Trey points to the last part of the letter then goes back to the refrigerator to get something to drink that help soothe his nerves.*

Yani: Hmm... "Oh, and befo' I forget, I'll be countin' on ya to make sure Emerald gets the rest of her...O_O yearly injections 'TOMORROW' and attends all of 'er future Doctor appointments..." *gulps* Sorry guv, can't help you there. Thanks for the drink; ta-ta! ^o^ *quickly flies out of the window*

Trey: Damn it Ashuro... WHY DO I HAVE TO RISK MY LIFE?! It's usually Kevin that goes through this stuff, not me!

*After about 20 minutes of ranting, Trey starts to calm down. He looks in to Emerald, seeing she was still sleeping. Her peaceful looking and cute face was all he needed, and then he starts to smile. He gets her an ice cold glass of water and put it next to her bed so she got something to drink when she woke up. He also gets a little ice bag and places it carefully against her sore butt. After all this was done, he kneels next to her and places a kiss on her cheek before leaving the room*

Emerald: *awakens a few minutes later then yawns* Hm? *sees the glass of water and drinks it then notices the ice bag on her butt*

*Getting out of the bed, Emerald takes the ice bag and silently sneaks into the living room where she sees Trey laying down on the couch, completely exhausted. Like a predator stalking it's prey, Emerald gets on all fours and stealthily crawls up to Trey without him seeing her and places the ice bag on Trey's forehead, surprising him a bit. Smiling at each other afterwards, Emerald opens her arms out wide, signaling for Trey to pick her up; he does so and they both lay down on the couch together, Emerald snuggling her small body up into Trey's chest as he keep his arms wrapped around Emerald to keep her close to him. After placing the ice bag back on his head, Trey realizes that Emerald had approached him naked, not even bothering to use a sheet or anything to cover up with. He guessed that must mean that she's okay being like that as long as it's just the two of them...and that she's not afraid of her scars being seen. In those few moments, Emerald is once again sound asleep with a look of happiness on her face, feeling safe and secure in the arms of her beloved.*
