Mt. Pyre (1)

After leaving the Ancient Tomb, Julian was back in the sky heading towards Mt. Pyre, with Latios speed he didn't have to worry about being late to the scene, he even expected that he will be there before the event even takes place.

After hours of riding on Latios Julian finally saw the top of Mt. Pyre, he the island which it was situated on was surrounded by a huge lake which connected to the ocean, the only way to reach Mt. Pyre was through the air or by riding a boat or a ferry.

Julian signaled Latios to land on the island, Latios shot towards the island and landed in a place where no one was present.

Julian got off from Latios and patted his head.

Julian "Thank you for the ride, you can go now"

Latios nodded and shot towards the sky and disappeared, Julian looked around the island and saw that it was very huge and many houses were present here, it was just like a small city.

Julian "Ok now that I am here, let's see what's going on around here"

Julian entered the village and saw that people were living their lives peacefully and children were playing and running around, it looked like the people living here were not aware of what is happening.

Julian started to walk around the town to figure out some stuff and heard a group of old men talking something about Team Magma and Aqua, Julian moved closer to them and sat on a bench and hear what they are talking about.

Old Man 1 "I don't know what are those young men wearing blue and red costumes are doing?"

Old Man 2 "Yes, they popped off out of nowhere and now living in this island, the village head talked to them and they said that they are here to benefit humankind"

Old Man 3 "That sounds completely delusional to me, how can being here help humankind, our island has nothing here"

Old Man 2 "You are indeed right, I heard that the gym leaders of the Mossdeep gym are also here and they are living in the village head house"

Old Man 1 "Do you think the village head is hiding something, something must be going on behind our back"

Old Man 3 "I guess so, well we should not interfere with these foreign forces, I just hope they don't bring trouble to our village"

Old Man 2 "Indeed, by the way, did you make the tea I gave you"

Old Man 1 "Yes, it was quite fragrant"

Old Man 3 "What tea?"

The old men completely forgot about their previous conversation and started to talk about tea, but Julian got what he needed to know, the members of Team Aqua and Magma are in Mt. Pyre and are definitely planning to steal the orbs.

He knew that just two people cannot guard the orbs.

Julian "I don't know what the gym leaders are thinking, I think they didn't think this through, even though Team Magma and Aqua are idiots they still have a powerful force to back it with"

Julian walked around the town to do some for investigations and he saw a Magma grunt guarding the entrance of an Inn.

Julian 'This must be the place where the leaders might be hiding'

Julian knew Team Magma and Aqua had nothing to fear right now. Since other gym leaders are busy dealing with the catastrophe which will arrive in a month, they had to prepare for everything, right now Mt. Pyre was protected by only two people and they were the twins and also the gym leader of the Mossdeep gym, they had to stay near the Orbs so that Team Magma and Aqua cannot get their hands on it.

This allowed them to move freely around the village, Julian walked closer to the inn and tried to enter but he was stopped by the grunt guarding the front.

Grunt "Stop right here, no one is allowed to enter the inn, go back to where you came from"

Julian "I am a traveler so I need to stay at the Inn. If I can't enter where do I stay for the day"

Grunt "It doesn't concern me where you stay, I said no one is allowed means no one is allowed"

Julian "Suit yourself"

Julian said and hit the Magma grunt at the side of his neck and knocked him unconscious, he grabbed the Grunt and put him against the wall and walked in, when he walked in he saw that the lower floor has no one, it was empty, he saw some grunts patrolling the area, but they were very few of them so Julian easily passed through them and walked up.

He didn't want to make a scene by destroying the inn and alarming the people of the village, as he walked up he noticed that two grunts were guarding a door.

Julian 'The leader is most likely inside that room'

Julian took out a gold coin from his pouch and rolled it in front of the grunts. The two grunts who were guarding were surprised seeing a gold coin in front of them.

Grunt "Hey quickly get that coin we can sell it for big money"

The other Grunt stepped forward and walked behind the rolling coin while the grunt who told him to do so was watching him, Julian slowly sneaked behind the grunt and knocked him out.

The Grunt who was after the coin finally picked it up and turned around to see a young man behind him smiling ear to ear. Before he could alert someone, he felt his vision go blank and collapsed on the floor.

Julian took the gold coin from the grunts hand and placed him at the side and walked towards the door, he placed his ear next to the door and tried to hear if anything was going on inside.

Blaise "Hahahaha, those Team Aqua fools made our job even easier, not only they killed Mt. Chimney's activity, but they also helped us in awakening Groudon"

Tabitha "Indeed, by the killing of the volcanic activity of Mt. Chimney they made sure that Groudon will awaken first due to the imbalance, and boss be there to control it so that our goal will be achieved"

Blaise "Those muscle heads don't even know what they did, they should go back to become pirates and never come back

Tabitha "They are muscle heads, after all, they only know how to use brute strength"

Blaise "Where is Courtney?"

Tabitha "See is on the lookout, if Team Aqua makes a move, she will inform us"

Blaise "That's great, can't wait to get our hands on those orbs, tomorrow will be fun "

Julian who was standing outside heard everything.

Julian 'Team Aqua are really idiots, well both of them are idiots, it looks like they will try to move tomorrow, I should get them all in one fell swoop'

Julian decided to eliminate all of them in one go so he decided to wait till tomorrow. When both Magma and Aqua assemble at one place that is when he is going to strike.
