A Fragile Heart

Sci-Twi got dressed and we ran out to go find the others. I had a Z-Power Ring, and inside was the Waterium Z. With it, Brionne can use Hydro Vortex. "I hope Brionne and I can use Hydro Vortex. We haven't really practiced it", I said as we ran.

"Are you serious? It can't be that hard", Sci-Twi said.

"There they are", I said. Timber and the girls were at Crystal Prep. Cinch was there.

"Go, Pyroar!", Cinch shouted. She threw a Poké Ball, and a female Pyroar appeared.

"Brionne, let's go!", I retorted. I threw a Poké Ball, and Brionne appeared, spreading her arms like a performer.

"How puny", Cinch said. "Pyroar, use Flamethrower on that meddling kid!"

"I don't think you understand how a Pokémon battle works. Brionne, use Aqua Jet!", I retorted. Brionne slammed into Pyroar, drenching her (Pyroar). "Now, Water Gun!" As Pyroar unleashed a stream of fire, Brionne retorted with a stream of water. The stream of fire quickly dissolved. "HYDRO PUMP!" Brionne unleashed an enormous stream of water, completely drenching Pyroar, knocking her out.

"Pyroar, return", Cinch said. Pyroar returned. "I will incinerate you! Go, Heatran!" The villain threw a second Poké Ball, and the Legendary Pokémon Heatran appeared. "Use Magma Storm!" A column of molten lava shot out from the ground near me. More columns of lava appeared, surrounding me. "KILL HIM!" Inside the columns, I activated my Z-Power Ring, and I swayed my arms from side-to-side. Brionne copied my movements.

"HYDRO VORTEX!!!", I shouted. A whirlpool engulfed Heatran, and the columns of lava sunk back into the ground, freeing me. The whirlpool swirled faster as it grew tighter. Brionne shot a stream of water at the whirlpool, ultimately drenching Heatran. Brionne started to glow. She started to change form. Soon enough, the transformation was complete. Brionne evolved into Primarina and learned Sparkling Aria (replacing Pound)! Eventually, Heatran flew out of the vortex, knocked out. Primarina hummed. I revealed a Primarium Z in my pocket. Suddenly, a car ran Cinch over. "I'm gonna miss her. She seemed nice."

"Who the..?", Applejack said. Sci-Twi winked at us. However, Cinch was not dead. A fiery vortex engulfed the corpse, bringing Cinch back to life. Her eyes were fire red. She took on the form of a hellish monster.

"Alright, it's time to end this once and for all!", I shouted. I inserted the Primarium Z into the Z-Power Ring, replacing the Waterium Z. I activated my Z-Power Ring, and, just like before, I swayed my arms from side-to-side. Primarina did the same. "OCEANIC OPERETTA!!!" Primarina formed an enormous orb of water, and, as she continued to hum, the orb of water continued to grow bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger. Soon enough, it was about thirty feet high in the air, looming at a mighty fifty feet high. Primarina let the orb drop. Soon enough, it made contact with the hellish villain, causing it to explode. Cinch disappeared in a combined ball of flames and waves. Abacus Cinch was no more. Primarina tackled me, and we embraced tightly.

Gospel Of Dismay by DAGames
Let's hope this time we can get this band back together again!
You joined the underground cabaret today.
Well, hey there, tell me your name.
You try to run and tell the world, but you're stranded in a darkened cave.
Oh, Henry, we hate you the same.
So listen up, my friend.
There's more than meets the eye.
You power up the studio and bring them to life!
Now play the beat that trickles through the halls, or else your life is nevermore.
Don't worry, chum!
It's not the music that dies.
Now listen up!
Our life support machine was brought to life by remarkable hands.
Forget about the hell we've seen, the time has come to revive our band.
So bang the drums to a rhythm captivating the beat.
And press the keys on the piano for the ritual, please.
The song's alive with the night!
With your help, we'll revive!
The Devil's advocate is staring right through your lies!
You're just returning our old strings tonight.
I hope you turn on the lights now!
Can I get an amen in here?
Amen!
You see the magic of art!
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an amen in here?
Amen!
This magic is fueled by your heart!
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue!
He had bigger plans for the band!
By demand, we came back to this darkened cell!
You're gonna break us out of this hell!
We've been stars since the rhythm days, but our instruments have all grown tired.
And in the end, our only dream was to dance.
They took the dance away, and we got retired.
But that was long ago, we have a new change of face!
We turned it up a couple notches with a brand new pace!
You think they all just erased us, betrayed us, enslaved us, but the deed is done, and now we want to get out!
Now listen up!
Ain't it nice to be underground with a good old friend like me?
A friend like me, yeah.
So, you notice that sign, we ain't lying, but sit down and take a seat.
Take a seat.
There's an exit for sure, but that's for schmucks.
But with a little bit of ink and a couple of bucks, we can reopen the curtains and show off the strut.
But for goodness sake, you've gotta just believe!
You're just returning our old strings tonight.
I hope you turn on the lights now!
Can I get an amen in here?
Amen!
You see the magic of art!
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an amen in here?
Amen!
This magic is fueled by your heart!
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue!
He had bigger plans for the band!
By demand, we came back to this darkened cell!
You're gonna break us out!
Go to sleep, my little sheep.
It's time to rest your head, whether alive or dead.
I am the keeper of the key that will set us all free.
I bring the Demon back to life.
(Bring the Demon back to life.)
There's a song I sing that shows us the light.
Even in the lighter side of Hell, we sing with delight.
Play the notes that I require, this will please my desires.
You have given me the tools to restart this fire!
There's a twisted fate that controls us and betrays us!
My friends have a death wish, and all of this is him to blame!
Now we've brought him to his knees!
Your only hope to escape this is to embrace this!
We need your help to keep this Demon at bay!
Let's end this today!
You're the conductor of this performance now, Henry!
Will you take their word, or ours?
Golly, I hope this works!
You turned on this machine!
Now, you have to believe!
Can I get an amen in here?
Can I get an amen?
You see the magic of art!
Of art!
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an amen in here?
This magic is fueled by your heart!
Your heart!
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue!
They're untrue!
He had bigger plans for the band!
By demand, we came back to this world of gray!
WELCOME TO THE GOSPEL OF DISMAY!!!!!
