Chapter 2
With an almighty roar, the truly gigantic Dragon-type pokemon swooped down. He was met by a Psybeam attack from Deoxys. As the titan crashed into the ground below, Deoxys approached. Several nearby buildings had been destroyed by the force of Rayquaza falling to the ground and Deoxys had to float above the debris; thankfully, no other Pokemon were hurt.
As Team Triforce stood there, too shocked to act, Rayquaza lifted himself into the air. Upon seeing Deoxys, he roared once again.
"We meet again, old foe!" he cried.
"Rayquaza, this is your final warning!" Deoxys said, remarkably calmly. (Leafeon wondered if it was because Deoxys was all machine and had no emotion). "Call off your evil plans and retreat now! Or I shall raise an army against you and defeat you once and for all!" Rayquaza simply burst out laughing, his laughter sounding exactly like thunder clapping.
"You can never defeat me!" he belowed. "I will soon be invincible, once I awaken The Justice. And nothing will stop me then! You puny Pokemon will never stop me, the Sky Titan!"
Before anyone could act, Rayquaza had smacked Deoxys right out of the air with his tail. The metallic pokemon crashed to the ground...and didn't move. Charizard gasped. Suicune glanced over at her.
" Charizard..." he said. But his friend wasn't listening. The fire on her tail was blazing fiercely and there was a fierce look in her eyes. Before Suicune or Leafeon could stop her, Charizard had flown forward to confront Rayquaza. She fired a powerful Flamethrower attack. It caught him off guard, hitting him square on the head. With a roar of anger he turned to consider Charizard, Suicune and Leafeon.
"You pathetic beings might stand up to me now, but once I free The Justice, nothing will ever stop me!" he cried. Charizard had landed by now and was by the still body of Deoxys. Rayquaza looked around at them all. Then, with a final shriek of fury, he flew up into the clouds.
"Yeah, you'd better run!" Leafeon cried, attempting bravery. "Um....what was he on about?"
"He was....his goal..." a whisper rose from Deoxys. Charizard gave a happy gasp and helped the mysterious Pokemon up. Suicune looked around the area.
"He did a lot of damage..." he muttered.
"That is...nothing compared to...what Rayquaza will do if we do not stop him." Deoxys managed to say. He still wore his long cloak and it blew out behind him in the breeze.
"What will he do, then?" Leafeon asked. "What was that Justice thingy he kept yelling about?"
"The Justice is said to be...the most destructive weapon ever created. It is hidden in a secret place...that Rayquaza has found." Deoxys said. "If Rayquaza manages to free the justice from it's hding place, then...the world will be destroyed in one swift blow."
"Oh my!" gasped Charizard. Deoxys turned to her.
"That is why I have been searching for you." Deoxys explained. "Your legendary reputation as an Exploration Team has spread far and wide. I figured that if anyone could help me...then it was you."
"We have sworn to protect the Earth." Suicune said. "We will do anything to defend it."
"So yes, we will help you." Leafeon put in. Deoxys looked upon them all and Charizard thought that if he could smile then he would.
"I can never show enough gratitude to you." he said. "We must hurry. I know of some Pokemon who can help us...they live in the forest nearby."
"Then what are we waiting for?" Leafeon said, grinning. "Let's go!"
