Journey Towards Greatness 22 Lavender Town's Pokemon Tower 2

Julian walks towards the gate and opens it as he enters the proximity of the tower he starts to feel an airy feeling, he looks towards his left and right to find nothing except some nameless tombstones, Cubone also starts to feel scared and tightly holds onto Julian's coat

Julian "This is going to be really troublesome, I hope I am able to find a strong ghost pokemon and of course help Cubone to meet his dead mother's ghost"

He walks towards the building and opens the door which makes a creaking noise, he walks in to find an empty floor, there were some tombstones inside as well but they had names and time of death on them as Julian walks towards one of them he hears a creaking noise to which he turns back to see the doors close shut

Julian 'looks like they started to play their pranks, I have to be very careful they are not aggressive they just want to play but they might sometimes go a little too far while playing their pranks'

Julian 'System scan the tower and tell me the exact number of pokemons present'

System 'Scanning, scanning finished, there are a total of 17 pokemons in the tower'

Julian '17, that's a lot'

Julian "Cubone lets start to search your mother ok"

Cubone nods and doesn't say anything, Julian starts to explore this floor but soon he hears creaking sounds again but this time it's coming from above, he looks up to see a chandelier swinging then it suddenly snaps seeing it coming down towards him he jumps away dodging it completely and see it crashing down onto the floor causing a huge bang sound, hearing the bang Cubone and Kabuto gets scared but calms down after Julian creases them saying that nothing happened.

Julian 'These ghost type pokemons are really reckless they don't know the consequence of playing this type of pranks, well I can't do anything I don't have any dark type pokemons with me right now'

After calming down and finally finished searching the ground floor he starts to move towards the first floor as he starts to climb the stairs a flying vase comes at him from nowhere but he easily dodges it as he was prepared and was ready to take on any kind of challenge they throw at him, when he reached the first floor after dodging numbers of flying vases and chairs he sees a two Gastlys looking at him happily and suddenly disappeared.

Julian "I this keeps on going it will be troublesome, It looks like I have to face it head on if they throw anything simultaneously"

Julian takes out a pair of MMA style rubber gloves which has metal knuckles on them and wears it.

Julian "I didn't think that I would be using them here, I just bought them for training purpose but now I have to punch some flying chairs and vase coming at me, and for back up, Monferno come out"

Monferno comes out and sees that they are in a dark and abandoned place he gets confused and looks at Julian so Julian explain him their situation and tells him to break anything that comes towards them, Monferno nods his head, Julian starts to search the first floor he sees some Gastlys appearing through the wall and as they see Julian they quickly disappear, there was no sign of any ghost hear so they start to walk towards the second floor as they are about to climb the stairs a desk comes crashing down but its turned shatters by Moferno as he punches it with his fist as they continue every kind home items comes flying towards them vases, flower pots, benches, chairs, desk, wooden planks, floor tiles, etc everything that comes towards them Julian and Monferno punches and kicks them away either breaking them or send them flying backward and finally they reach the second floor when they reach there they see a Gengar Julian didn't want to miss this opportunity and commands Monferno to engage in battle.

Julian "Monferno activate Foresight then use focus punch as fast as possible"

As Monferno has learned the skill foresight which allows him to attack ghost type pokemons,

Monferno without wasting any time sprints towards Gengar and uses focus punch with full power as Monferno was so fast Gengar didn't get time to dodge as was sent flying and crashed on a shelf but as soon as it crashed it got up and disappeared from there seeing this Gengar escaping both Julian and Monferno were pissed.

Julian "What the fuck its so difficult to first land an attack on them and now after finally getting a hit, they fucking escape"

Julian was really pissed this time and he and Monferno went on a rampage around the tower they would be greeted by multiple flying objects but those all were destroyed by them after some time it turned into a game between Julian, Monferno vs the ghost pokemons, surprisingly Cubone and Kabuto were having a time of their life seeing this scene presented before them as they watched how Julian and Monferno were rampaging around every were, one floor after another they conquered all, now the ghost pokemons were helpless as all their equipment were destroyed by Julian and Monferno, they never have felt so defeated in their lifetime but they were enjoying it.

Finally Julian and the rest had reached the 7th floor and this was the last floor of the tower, both Julian and Monferno were tired but they could still continue as they still had the stamina to spare but they didn't need to continue as they were looking around they entered a room where they saw a Marowak roaming around the room but something was different about it, they looked carefully and they noticed that it was a little transparent, it was a ghost.

Cubone who was sitting on Julian's solder suddenly jumps off and start running towards this ghost Marowak crying, Marowak also turned around to see Cubone and started to call him as Cubone tried to jump and hold his mother he passed right through her, he didn't understand at first but his mother started talking to him which made him cry more and after sometime she started to disappear slowly, seeing her slowly disappearing Cubone tried to grab her but it was no use, while disappearing she was smiling, smiling because she was able to see her son one last time, seeing his mother smile at him he stopped crying and looked at her as she slowly faded away, this scene was all seen by Julian as he stayed there not interfering as he knew this was his last time to see his mother and every second was precious.

Cubone was just looking at the spot where his mother had disappeared, Julian finally decided to walk towards him and lifted him and placed him on his solder

Julian "Cubone your mother will be very happy to know that you didn't cry after she disappeared she will be proud to have such a strong son, but you know crying will help you reduce your sadness in your heart so whenever you feel you want to cry, cry till the pain in your heart goes away"

Cubone just nods his head and forces himself to not cry but he was still a baby he could not hold himself and started to cry, as he cried Kabuto climbed down and clung onto Cubone as if he was hugging him until he finally stopped.

Julian sighed looking at Cubone as he knew it was very painful to lose family as he looked outside it was about to sunrise

Julian "Looks like I couldn't catch any of those sneaky bastards, Cubone are you ready its time to go back"

Cubone just nods his head and didn't say anything as he was still sad, Julian climbed down and sees the mess he and Monferno made around here and couldn't help but laughs awkwardly he walks out of the tower and was about to open the gate when he felt like someone taped the right solder he turns around and see no one was there when he felt a tap on his other solder Julian is no fool and he knew that another Ghost pokemon trying to mess with him, he pretended to turn left but again turned right to see a Gengar, Gengar was also surprised that his trick didn't work

Julian "Arnt you the same Gengar who attacked us on the second floor"

Gengar nods his head smiling and agreeing to Julian

Julian "What do you want, if you still want to play around I cannot as I have other things to do"

Julian opens the gate and walks out after sometimes he feels like someone was still following him, he turns around to see Gengar again.

Julian "Don't tell me you want to come with us?"

Gengar again nods his head happily, Julian was first surprised but he soon figured it out and didn't ask why he wanted to follow him as Julian already knew the answer as he had seen it in Gengar's eyes the desire to become strong so he wanted to follow Julian as he had witnessed how strong Julian and Monferno are together, Julian takes out a Pokeball a brings it in front of Gengar

Julian "Then what are you waiting for come with us"

Gengar becomes happy and presses the Pokeball's button as he goes inside as the Pokeball shakes left and right and finally makes a sound confirming that the capture is complete.

Julian "Gengar come out"

Julian "Gengar now we are partners so we will become stronger together"

Gengar nods his head happily and dances around shaking Monferno's hand irritating Monferno, as Julian smiles looking at this he sees that the sun is coming up, he looks at the rising orange sun as it lights up the sky orange

Julian 'A new day and with this a new adventure'
