Pokemon - A Mystical Journey
/ Pokemon - A Mystical Journey 140 chapter 22 : North Base
Alex was eyeing everyone from the mayor to the town official to the advanced trainer to see anyone disagree with him. Yet none came out to object and say that they disagree.
Although they might disagree to this decision, they won't dare to directly say it. They will keep it close to their heart.
" Now that the problem of my post has been solved can I ask what direction I will be posted and what is the general topography of that area and it's surrounding one kilometers radius area?" Alex asked the mayor. Since he was the only one except the captain to hold such an important document.
" Yes, we will send it to you. But we first want to know which direction you could take on.
On North and South direction there is forest, in the west we have Mountain ranges where many rock types reside and in the east is also has dense tree covering but a little bit ahead there is a river.
So we came to a conclusion that on the north and south direction we will have majority of grass type pokemons, from West there will be rock and ground types and in the east there might be water type majority.
Other types of Pokemon may join too but their number will be much less than the grass, rock and water type in their respective areas."
Alex thought that for grass type, he had Pidgeot, Charmeleon, marill, Pidgeotto, Slowking, Espeon and Piloswine. These could give devastating damage to the pokemons in the north and south direction.
For rocks and ground, he lacks water, ice, grass and fighting type pokemons who have type advantage.
Although he won't lose, he would have unnecessary casualty. Especially from the explosion and self destruction of the pokemons.
Electabuzz, Ivysaur and marill can be at advantage. This type is a tricky one as the water source would be their safe garden and they can often heal themselves there and once again initiate the attack. And it will be difficult especially for a first time commander.
So the most advantageous place for him would be the North and South direction.
" I would like north and south direction."
" And why would you like these positions?" Asked Terrence the gym leader.
" I have Pidgeot, Slowking, piloswine and Charmeleon. Their attacks are effective against grass type and I could last longer there. Also if there isn't any pseudo king pokemons attacking from that direction then I could even hold back the pokemons there." He said confidently.
His confidence was taken as over confidence by most but captain Bolt saw the amount of confidence he had on himself and asked ," what makes you be so confident?"
He simply replied," I have a Snorlax."
" I see"
Snorlax defense was Legendary and his stamina was also something worth fearing. As long as he wasn't too outnumbered or outmatched, he would not be defeated easily.
But their appetite made them a very expensive Pokemon and so they were much used in battle.
" Tsskk... Rich brat" one of the trainer grumbled
Alex pointedly ignored it and looked at the decision maker Mayor Flinn. " Fine, you will the north zone commander. All the information and supplies for that area will be given to you. Is there anything else?"
" No, everything is fine "
" Then captain send a second lieutenant to him with all the things about the forces there along with various orders and task requirements there." Said to captain bolt
And then to Alex "He will take you to the north base camp do you could get yourself acquainted with your troops. "
Soon another person arrived who looked at Alex puzzled and on his Superiors command asked Alex to follow him to the North camp.
But before leaving he said something to all present there," Although I know most of you don't like me but do remember that this, that " a house divided against itself can't stand."
I hope it was just your fleeting thoughts about my position and age and not disrespect towards the league or else the consequences would be disastrous." And he left them to their thoughts.
After he left the room, the normally calm Mayor was shaking in anger and his powerful master presence was released on all. Except for xatu, Terrence and Bolt, everyone else was on their knees.
He then looked at all of them furious with red eyes and roared," You idiots, do you know what you were doing. You actually dare to question the orders of the top especially in a situation like this. In the state of emergency, the orders of the top inside cannot be violated. No matter what, their orders are sacred.
Do you think that the people there are goody good shoes. All of them has blood on their hands. They have probably ended the lives of hundreds of people and their one decision could affect the life of thousands, if not millions.
What do you think will happen when they know what happened here today. They won't be as calm as you think. They don't like disobedient people. "
" Don't worry sir. No one here is a fool to reveal something like this to others. This matter won't leave the room and we can deal with that boy later so we are not afflicted with acts of treason." Another official said
But before he could continue and say anymore, Xatu by the side acted and used his psychic to crush him. He leviated him above the ground and crushed him in the shape of a ball.
After that, he used air slash to cut the ball into pieces. The only thing left were his tiny bits along with blood mess on the floor.
Xatu didn't take kindly to him threatening Alex.
Other occupants were shocked to see one of the person among themselves was killed so brutally right in front of them and they couldn't protect themselves.
Some reached out to for their pokeballs to subdued the attacking Xatu. But he used his psychic to freeze their actions.
" This Xatu was sent by the league to make sure we follow the orders and don't cause problems but it seems like things can't be avoided.
Now you know, we will be prosecuted after this incident and no one would be left especially that fool lieutenant.
So you better behave yourself and hope your brave performance in this tide could grant you some leniency, when they try to dig your past and find all your deeds to accompany with your near violation of orders."
" Will they really do it? After all we just doubted the kid and nothing about their orders. I know some people in the league they will protect me from this unjust prosecution. "
" The top brass emphasised on their message that they would happily sacrifice the whole town just so he could learn some leadership skills.
Thousand of people in the town doesn't equate to that young boy in their eyes. They even said that directly granting him the head of operations would be too much because of his age and lack of experience.
So they gave him the zone commander post. So do you think they would side with Alex or you in case you cause him problems during this time.
And finally this Xatu will reside in the town but won't participate in the defences. He would monitor all our actions and report back to them.
If situation comes that we are losing or Alex is in danger, he will escape the town with alex keaving us to our fate.
This is your position in the eyes of the league. You are just a sacrificial piece for them to train stronger trainers. Now do you really think they won't take action against you?"
The words of the mayor dawned a cruel reality on all of them. And no one could say he was wrong.
Alex is officially the zone commander and soon he will meet his troops. How will it go? Stay tuned
