Journey Towards Greatness 141 He Hasn't Given Up?

Grunt "What?"

Julian "Latios Dragon Pulse"

Latios shot a powerful Dragon Pulse at the grunts and sent them cras.h.i.+ng on to the wall alongside their pokemon, Jimmy and Marina were in awe seeing this young man take out a bunch of grunts in one single attack.

Julian "You kids get out of here it's dangerous"

Julian warn them so that they won't get in his way, however, these kids are stubborn.

Jimmy "No we are coming with you mister, Team Rocket is trying to capture the legendary pokemon Registeel and I cannot allow that to happen"

Marina "Jimmy is right, we also want to come with you mister"

Julian 'Did he say Registeel? so this Ancient Tomb is the home of the Registeel, no wonder there were rumors that a legendary pokemon lived here'

Julian looked at Jimmy and Marina and thought they were annoying.

Julian 'I hate when kids try to do something they can't achieve, they will just get hurt in the crossfire'

Julian "Latios put them to sleep"

Latios understood what Julian was trying to do so he suddenly released a psychic blast which instantly put Jimmy and Marina to sleep.

Julian "Ok then let's move forward"

Hearing Julian Latios flew towards a cave-like opening as he felt the call for help coming from there, as they pa.s.sed through the cave, they arrived in front of a huge room and it had a huge dome right in the middle of it, Julian saw members of team rocket surrounding the dome, he also saw two team rocket members on top of the dome with their pokemon attacking the Registeel which was trapped inside the net.

These two were mostly the leader of this group, one was a tall man with a well-built body and blond hair, he had a Skarmory on his side, while the other was a woman with blue hair and she had Steelix by her side.

One of the grunts noticed Julian entrance on Latios and got startled.

Grunt "You, who are you how did you get here?"

Hearing the grunt speak all the other members of the team rocket turned around and looked at Julian, the leaders also saw Julian and frowned, they were also worried by seeing that this man was riding a legendary pokemon.

Julian "You insignificant ants don't need to know, release Registeel right now"

The woman leader pressed a b.u.t.ton in her hand which suddenly created an electric field across the net in which Registeel was trapped and zapped it till it got paralyzed.

Then she stepped forward to confront Julian.

Hun "My name is Hun and that is my partner Attila, we warn you not to interfere with team rocket or you don't know the consequence of it"

Julian "Ya, ya, the same old you don't mess with speech, I have heard it several times, I heard it even from you boss Giovanni and he had to be hospitalized for that, you think I give a c.r.a.p about you insignificant ants"

Hun was speechless, she didn't know what to say, not many people knew that Giovanni was the boss of team rocket, not even the league committee but this man right in front of her knew about it and he didn't even think much about it.

Hun "Who are you?"

Julian "As I said before, you don't need to know, release Registeel"

Hun "And what if we don't?"

Julian "I think you got it all wrong, even if you agreed to release Registeel you would still be punished for wasting my time, even if you don't agree to release Registeel you will still be punished but it would be way harsher than you think"

Attila "Hey Hun stop talking and let's take care of this freak, then we can kill Registeel and harvest its skin"

Julian 'So this is what they are trying to do, they want the skin of Registeel which is said to be the strongest metal in the world, it is strong and also super flexible'

Hun "You are right, Steelix use Flash Canon"

Attila "Let me Join in as well, Skarmory you too, Flash Canon"

Both Steelix and Skarmory attacked with powerful Flash Canon which fused with each other to form an even bigger Flash Canon.

Julian "Dodge it"

Latios was fast, he quickly moved away and dodged the Flash Canon.

Julian "l.u.s.ter Purge "

Latios suddenly launched a glowing ball which released a bright light and suddenly exploded releasing powerful rays all over the place, l.u.s.ter Purge took out all the grunts of the Team Rocket in one go, it also hit both Steelix and Skarmory and sent them back, due to l.u.s.ter Purge's effect both their special defense fell down.

Julian "Dragon Pulse"

Latios once again launched a powerful Dragon Pulse and hit Steelix directly with it, Steelix was sent cras.h.i.+ng into the wall and got stuck in it.

Hun was shocked seeing this but she was still calm.

Julian "Psychic"

Latios then released a powerful psychic wave which caught on to Skarmory and rendered it motionless, then Latios slammed it to the ground several times till it fainted.

Seeing both their pokemon were down Hun and Attila looked at each other and nodded.

Hun "Mission failed, abort mission"

Hun ran toward Attila and Attila threw a smoke bomb on the ground to escape, as they were about to escape they suddenly felt someone holding on to their shoulders.

Julian "Where do you think you are going, did you forget your punishment"

Hun and Attila felt scared for the first time in their life, they were always composed and carefree in their mission, even if they failed their mission they would make a quick tactical retreat or escape calmly, but for the first time they were stopped and they felt fear growing inside them as they heard Julian's voice besides their ears.

They turned and looked at their shoulder to see Julian standing right between them with a smile on his face, they couldn't see his face due to the mask but that smile also crept them out, they suddenly felt a stinging pain behind their neck and the next moment they fainted.

They collapsed to the ground and Julian dusted his hands.

Julian "What a waste of a smoke bomb"

Julian turned around and saw that the net was still activated with an electric barrier, he searched around Hun and found the b.u.t.ton to deactivate it, he pressed the b.u.t.ton and the electric field disappeared.

Registeel was quite weak right now, it was trying its best to not faint because it knew if it faints it will die, it saw Latios and was relieved, it knew Latios as Latios would always roam around Hoenn and it had sensed it many times which it was in its tomb, when it got captured it sent distress signal to get help from anything strong near the tomb and it was lucky that Latios was around at that moment.

Julian approached Registeel and removed the net of its body and threw it at the side, seeing that it was now free and escaped from danger, it stretched its hands and legs and bowed towards Julian and walked away inside the huge bulb inside the ground and disappeared.

Julian was surprised seeing this, he just helped Registeel and it just bowed and went away without any compensation.

Julian 'Well that was weird'

He then looked at the unconscious team rocket duo then at the electric net.

Julian "Well then let's go"

Julian said and carried both Hun and Attila outside with the electric net. When they arrived outside he hung them inside the net on a tree and waited for them to wake up.

After waiting for a while both Hun and Attila woke up and found themselves caught in the net, they looked at Julian and saw him holding the b.u.t.ton to the electric net.

Hun "Wi"

Before Hun could even finish her sentence Julian pressed the b.u.t.ton and the net was electrified, Hun and Attila both received a high voltage shock which rendered them motionless as their whole body felt numb.

Julian "So tell me what is Giovanni planning this time?"

Hun knew she can only answer or her life might be in danger.

Hun "Boss asked Professor Sebastian to build a weapon to catch the runaway pokemon he is trying to search for months and Registeel's body can make the perfect weapon"

Julian "I see, he hasn't given up yet"

Hun "Do you know what this pokemon is?"

Hun was surprised hearing Julian, she came to the conclusion that Julian knew something about this pokemon their boss was after.

Julian "You don't need to know, I will be going then"

Julian turned around and pressed the b.u.t.ton of the net and throw it to the side, the net was electrified again and Hun and Attila were zapped again, Julian left them electrified and hanging on the tree and left on Latios's back.
