Journey Towards Greatness

Her Salamence suddenly launched a Dragon Pulse towards Julian but before the attack could even reach Julian it got engulfed by white flames and disappeared.

Infernape landed before Julian and started at Salamence with cold eyes.

The Salamence suddenly froze on the spot by sensing the danger sending its rider flying off it.

Zinnia flew up and landed in front of Julian.

Julian is just dumbfounded by this whole situation.

Zinnia got back to her feet and started daggers at Julian, she then turned around and looked at his Infernape and got dumbfounded.

Zinnia "IT'S YOU"

Julian once again got startled by her sudden shouting.

Julian "Who?"

Zinnia "You are the one who stopped Groudon and Kyogre"

Julian was surprised hearing this, only Lance and Juan knew about this now there is one more woman who knows about this.

Julian "How did you find out?"

Zinnia "This white Infernape, I saw it defeat Groudon and Kyogre, I was there watching the battle"

Julian didn't expect someone was actually present during that catastrophic battle, he looked at her Salamence and saw that it is as strong as a champion's pokemon.

Julian "Who are you?"

Zinnia "My name is Zinnia, I am the last of the Draconid People"

Julian "Draconid?"

Zinnia "We the people of the Draconid are responsible for the safekeeping of the Jade Crystal but the people from Shadows stole it from us, we couldn't fight them back because of their numbers being higher than ours"

Julian "Why are you here?"

Zinnia "I saw Rayquaza heading here, so I came to ask for its help"

Julian "What kind of help?"

Zinnia "A huge meteor is heading towards Hoenn again, just like 3000 years ago, Rayquaza needs to destroy it before it falls on our planet"

Julian 'Fuck my life'

Julian is pissed, when he thought he will finally be able to be in peace with his two girlfriends, another catastrophe came knocking at the door.

Julian 'I swear to God if somebody is out there controlling my life I will fuck them up'

Julian swore inside his head.

Julian frowned after thinking about this meteorite coming towards Hoenn.

Julian "How did you know about this?"

Zinnia "The shaman of our tribe saw it happening in her vision"

Julian "Shaman?"

Zinnia "Yes, unfortunately, she died after having the vision, she couldn't withstand the burden"

Julian is in dilemma, he cannot completely ignore what she is saying, maybe it is a complete hoax but it can also be possible, he has seen God so a Shaman existence is still believable for him.

Julian "Are you sure?"

Zinnia "The Shaman has never seen anything false, everything she has seen has come true. If we don't stop this meteorite this new Hoenn will disappear before it can even flourish"

Julian "Wait a minute"

Julian 'If she is telling the truth I have to do something, destroying the meteorite won't resolve the problem, he has to completely make it disappear, if Rayquaza shatters it, pieces of the meteorite will fall like rain on this world'

Julian then thought of something

Julian 'System can Infernape's flame burn the meteorite?'

System 'Anything Infernape want to burn will be burnt, Predominant flame is the flames sustained by the Omniforce itself, nothing can stop it'

Julian 'Looks like I have to make Infernape burn the meteorite till it completely disappears'

Julian looked at the huge Shiny Rayquaza who has finally calmed down and is looking at the juvenile Rayquaza, who seems to be awake finally, it flew towards the big Rayquaza and cried in pain, the Shiny Rayquaza got angry and looked at the fainted Brad with a fierce gaze.

Julian jumped down and walked towards the fainted Brad, he lifted Brad up and slapped him until he woke up.

Brad felt a sharp pain on his cheeks, he looked around and saw his machine is destroyed but everything seems to be normal, he saw the Rayquaza which was under his control is now normal, he saw a huge Black Rayquaza staring fiercely at him and he saw Jason looking at him with cold eyes.

Julian "Where is the Jade Crystal?"

Brad "How?"

Julian slapped him again and asked.

Julian "Where is the Jade Crystal?"

Brad "It no longer exist, I extracted its energy to power up that machine so that I could control Rayquaza with just my will but because of you my dream is ruined, you fucker how dare you to do this, I am Brad the leader of the greatest Syndicate Shadow Legion"

Julian "You still don't get it huh? Well It doesn't matter to me, your fate is for it to decide"

Julian threw him to the ground and moved away leaving the huge Shiny Rayquaza slowly advance towards Brad, seeing the huge Rayquaza advancing towards him Brad got scared and moved back using his hands and legs rapidly but he still couldn't escape Rayquaza.

Rayquaza appeared in front of him and opened its mouth showing its razor-sharp teeth, it roared and bit down on Brad and gulped him down through its throat.

Julian got dumbfounded, he didn't expect Rayquaza to eat Brad.

Julian wanted to torture Brad but he decided to let Rayquaza calm its anger using Brad, even though he didn't expect Rayquaza to eat Brad, well now that it has happened he couldn't change it.

Julian 'Well, it is indeed just like a wild animal, after all, pokemons hunt each other in the wild and feed on each other'

Julian 'He said the Jade Crystal is no more, that meant the energy stored in that class container in that machine was the energy from the crystal, no wonder it was quite powerful.'

He then turned towards Zinnia.

Julian "The Jade Crystal has been destroyed, I guess now you are free from the responsibility, you should go and live the life you want, as for the meteorite leave it too me"

Zinnia "But?"

Julian "What but? Go away don't disturb me, you will just be a hindrance for me if you decided to tag along, you now don't have any responsibility to hold that was passed down to you by the previous generation, go and live a life you want to live"

Zinnia looked at Julian for a while and sighed, she nodded and hopped on her Salamence and flew away.

Zinnia 'Hmm, he said he will take care of the meteorite, but it still concerns me'

Zinnia though as she looked down.

Zinnia 'Wait why did that man seem so familiar. NO WAY, he was the champion of Kanto'

Zinnia suddenly realized who Julian was, she had seen his battle with Lance on the TV, she was really impressed by his power and wanted to battle him, but now seeing his real power she gave up on that thought.

Zinnia 'Ha, I met the champion and I couldn't even recognize him, maybe because of all the stress I was going through'.
