Pokemon - A Mystical Journey
/ Pokemon - A Mystical Journey 129 The Bargaining chip
Alex just felt that Dusknoir must be awarded to having tolerated a leader like Gengar for such a long time.
Dusknoir after all this just told one sentence to Gengar," I am not helping you with her."
Hearing this Gengar started turning pale and rocketed around in fright and anxiety. Alex then looked at Dusknoir who looked back at him.
Dusknoir said," Duss. Kknnoi. Rrrr duuss kknn. Oi. Rrrr"
Which Slowking translated as " let me meet my kids and I will make a decision about you."
Alex put some thoughts on whether to trust them but thinking that he was at complete disadvantage on this situation. His pokemons aren't fast enough to escape their siege especially with Gengar present.
Now he hoped that he has taught his other pokemons teleport. Now he has multiple pokemons capable of that moves such as Ralts and Baltoy who could learn it when evolving to claydol.
Similarly his electabuzz, butterfree and Growlithe when evolving to Arcanine could learn this trick.
Ralts until evolved to kirlia won't be of much use in this but electabuzz or mist probably butterfree could be trained in this move.
But it will take time. Baltoy, Ralts would take time to evolve. Baltoy a few months while Ralts a couple of months at most.
Seeing that he has no escape option, Alex agreed to his request and sent out the two mischievous ghosts.
As soon as they appeared they happily floated around for a while then greeted their new team. Then their gaze fell on their funny uncle Gengar and they rushed towards him to tell many new pranks and jokes they learned with nidoran and Haunter.
Gengar has calmed down from he previous anxiety episode and happily listened to the small rascals. But Dusknoir wasn't happy. The kids have completely ignored him and dashed off to the goofball Gengar who only taught them mischief.
So Dusknoir gave a deep cough to attract their attention. The two baby ghosts hearing a familiar cough turned around and on seeing the appearance of the source of the sound they were frozen solid.
The original mischievous Expression turned similar to a kid waiting to be punished. They were scared and didn't make a single excess movement.
They both were similar to how a mischievous kid act in front of a strict parents.
Now that they were paying attention to him Dusknoir went on about what they should and shouldn't do? They just nodded their head up and down without any sense of mutiny. In front of their father all their excitement and mischief goes down the drain.
Gengar by Dusknoir side didn't interfere in their moments and after he has ended his rage lecture Gengar motioned Dusknoir to sense the changes in the kids.
Dusknoir checked them up thinking that Gengar picked something in them he neglected to take nite of. He checked for any disorder or deficiency that might have developed when the kids joined the human but he didn't find anything out of ordinary.
On contrast they were in a much better health than earlier and more energetic too. So this time he looked at Gengar probably for some view of his on what to check then up for.
But Gengar just motioned him to thoroughly see them once again. After a few times he still didn't find anything out of ordinary but one thing came to his attention.
The ghost energy in the kids was richer and in more abundance than earlier. If compared to before it has increased by half in just a couple of days time. This was truly astonishing and he knew what caught Gengar attention.
These brats were only a year old yet their powers increased by half meaning they has skipped whole six months progress. This is really amazing. They live with their parents at higher levels where they gain more ghost energy but not at this rate
He checked them up once again in case there is any disorder in them yet he didn't find anything out of ordinary.
Gengar probably noticed that this human helped increase their powers by so much that's why he let them leave and now he wanna gain some bonus out of the human for the ghost present at the tower by getting that way from the human.
So he looked at Gengar with amore clarity than earlier. Gengar too noticed that Dusknoir came to the same conclusion as him and agreed.
So Dusknoir began to negotiate.
" Human you stole our kids as compensation you will give us what helped them raise their power"
" I didn't steal them it was your leaders action. I am just a victim here." Alex knew they probably were gonna extort him so he gave himself a hard front.
" It doesn't matter. You took them away you have to pay the price or else . " He ended the sentence with a threat.
Alex just released Charmeleon out and soon the cold Atmosphere from the ghost turned firy hot. Gengar's attention was on the stone the new pokemon Charmeleon wore on himself.
The stone has powers way greater than himself and the source may even annihate him in moments.
This stone was something Dragonite gave Charmeleon through Arcanine. This stone has enough power to destroy anything below champion if detonated. This is a protective mechanism from Charizard for his son.
Of course it is time limited and would last only half a year after which it would lose it's value and power. It also helps intensify the flames of Charmeleon.
Alex didn't know what that stone was but his senses always regarded it as dangerous though it was very helpful for Charmeleon. Yet he knew it was dangerous for Gengar as his expression changes," I am not just any human. You know what this stone is capable of isn't it Gengar. If you threaten us or try to kill us you yourself won't survive and then the pokemon tower would undergo massive upheaval under your demise."
Fir the first time Gengar wore a really serious expression and he was seriously considering his options. Seeing that threat doesn't work it may only come to bargaining which Dusknoir too knew. Although not knowing the danger from that stinks on small reptile's neck Gengar changing express tell that a very serious change in situation has occurred.
" Fine human we won't threaten you. Return back your pokemon so we can continue."
" Nuh uh I won't do that. Who knows when you will change back to previous situation and start attacking me?" Alex told them
This time Gengar asked," Don't you trust me that I won't attack?"
" I trusted you earlier and then I was threatened and you didn't interfere so sorry. I can't truly trust your words."
Hearing this Gengar just laughed mirthlessly.
" Fine I agree to let you have these two brats . Are they worth gaining your trust now " Gengar said
This Statement shocked both Dusknoir and Alex. Alex thought he has list the two ghosts but it seemed it wasn't the case. Dusknoir has a feeling of betrayal growing in himself but years of following him made him remain quiet and not directly oppose him.
" But you would have to exchange for the treasure you used to grow their powers. Is that agreeable?"
Gengar ended his sentence
And Dawn fell on both. The two ghosts were just chips to gain greater power. This Gengar was truly worthy of being a leader to even involve his own nephews for his followers.
What will be the outcome of this bargain? Stay tuned
