Chapter 7 Unexpected Allies

Ash was finally allowed to leave the Pokemon Center after receiving a gunshot wound. Marina was a little shaken when Ash told her, Pikachu and Absol about the broadcast. Pikachu and Absol were particularly angry about the group. Ash had told them that he will protect them from the group's threats. This time they were watching a news broadcast by someone from the Pokemon league. "We will not rest until the threat of Sektor Sieben is destroyed." the man said. "But what about the threats of Team Rocket?" someone asked. "We can't worry about that right now. Currently, the biggest threat to humans and Pokemon is Sektor Sieben." the man replied. "Pokemon Rangers have already begun to track down agents and robots of Sektor Sieben." the man said. Ash turned the TV off. Nothing good was on as it was all on the threat of Sektor Sieben.

Marina looked up at Ash. She was worried that he might die before she could tell Ash that she loved him. Absol looked on from a distance. He saw Buizel standing a distance away, but soon started moving closer. 'This guy just doesn't get it.' Absol thought to himself. Getting up, he ran towards Buizel.

Buizel was sure that this time he would get Marina's love. Absol jumped in front of him. "I am here to give you a warning. Leave her alone." Absol said. "Why should I leave her alone?" Buizel asked. "You may love her, but she doesn't love you. It's that simple. Rejection hurts, but what can you do?" Absol said. "That's what she thinks. I know she loves me. She must have been brainwashed by the human called Ash." Buizel said. Absol shook his head and said "She wasn't brainwashed. The love she has for him is true, not fake. She will not fall in love with anyone else but Ash." Absol said. "Then I must somehow convince her that she must love me. Even if it means hurting Ash." Buizel said. Absol growled and said in a deadly tone "If you harm Ash, I will harm you tenfold whatever you do to him. I will do anything to protect my Trainer and friend." Absol turned and ran towards Marina, who was walking back towards Ash.

A few days later, Ash and his friends were back on the road again. Every Pokemon Center they had been to had soldiers protecting it. The soldiers would check all Trainers for I.D or anything that would not show that they were Sektor Sieben agents. Ash and his friends waited in a Pokemon Center. Soldiers walked by while checking different rooms and outside on patrol. Ash sighed, but then felt his hat being taken off his head again. Turning around, he saw Marina had it in her hands. "Marina, would you give my hat back?" Ash said. Marina seemed to think for a second, but then put the hat on her head and said "I will if you can catch me." She ran off as Ash jumped up and chased after her. Brock and Dawn laughed as Marina made attempts to throw Ash off her trail. Absol smiled as he watched them. It was going like the legend said. But he knew that deep down Ash knew Marina was just playing with him. After a while Ash had caught Marina and once again taken his hat back.

"Marina seems to like to play that game a lot." Dawn said as Ash sat back down. Ash sighed as he nodded. Absol's head suddenly shot straight up. He then began to say something in his own language. "What is it, Absol?" Ash asked. "He says their here!" Marina said. Before Ash could say anything, an explosion was heard. "Sektor Sieben's is on the offensive!" a soldier shouted as soldiers ran by to the front door. Trainers jumped up and ran to some soldiers, who were handing them guns. Ash ran to the front to see that the battle was already taking place.

Sektor Sieben agents and robots moved forward while firing guns, bringing soldiers, Trainers and Pokemon down. Absol's curved horn glowed as he sent several Razor Wind attacks at the agents and robots. After several minutes, the agents and robots had easily crushed the soldiers. Ash stood in front of Marina, Absol and Pikachu as a robot marched forward. Ash closed his eyes as he waited for the robot to fire. "Mightyena, Shadow Ball!" a familiar voice shouted. Ash opened his eyes to see a Shadow Ball hit the robot. Turning his head, he saw Team Magma and Team Aqua grunts attacking the agents and robots. One of the Team Magma members was the Team Magma administrator Tabitha. "What are you doing here?!" Ash asked, not too sure why they were helping. "We are here to help you, of course!" Tabitha said. "Help us? That's a laugh!" Ash said. "Don't believe us? Then wait until the news comes on again!" Tabitha replied. By this time, most of the agents had retreated while most robots were destroyed.


Hours later. Ash and his friends, along with Tabitha, watched the news. Ash still didn't trust the Team Magma member, so he had Absol keep a watchful eye on Tabitha. They watched as a man from the Pokemon League come on. "We would like to inform all Trainers and military troops that Team Magma and Team Aqua have decided to help us in our struggle against Sektor Sieben's threat." the man said. Ash turned the TV off and said "I guess you were telling the truth." "Of course I was. But you are under my protection. As Team Magma and Team Aqua members have been assigned to protect top Trainers and the fact is that you are the Chosen One of Lugia's legend." Tabitha said.

Both Marina and Absol looked at Ash in shock. 'I fell in love with a human. Not a normal human, but the Chosen One...' Marina thought. 'I knew there was something special about him. But I didn't know he was the Chosen One.' Absol thought.
