Dina, Hymer, Oak, Red and L

Suddenly, everything hit Squirtle at the same time. It was now all alone. There was not there that knew about it and it didn't even know where it really was. It started to run towards the dark and lonely alley to search for Axel and it searched everywhere but it could not find Axel.

It then sat there and started to cry.

"Hey, Hey, buddy what happened? Why are you crying?", asked the girl as she started to remove the tears from its face.

"Squirt.. Squirt.. Squirtle!!!", it said.

"Oh, so your trainer got lost? He was right here?"

It nodded.

It was surprising that the girl could understand Squirtle cause it was not easy to completely understand a Pokemon language.

"Don't worry buddy. I will help you search for your trainer. Why don't we go to my home for some time? It would take some time to search for your trainer."

Squirtle didn't want to leave the place but the girl was very persuasive. After some time, Squirtle agreed to go with the girl in search of its trainer.

###

"Dina, who is this cute little guy?", asked one of the guards.

"Oh, it is just one of the Pokemon of my friend.", said Dina as she entered the gate.

The guard was guarding a big gate that led to a big mansion. The girl named Dina was the one that had found Squirtle and this was luckily from Toise family.

Even in places like Violet City, the Toise family had its base. It was a single big mansion but it was big enough. Dina Toise was one of the most talented trainers in the Toise family of this generation and thankfully she was there to save Squirtle at that time.

Dina went to the mansion and gave something to eat to Squirtle. But Squirtle had not forgotten about its trainer. It started to ask Dina about its trainer in its own way.

"All right, I said that I will help you. So, I will. First of all, I have to know who your trainer is. So, I will try to make a picture of your trainer based on your description.", said Dina.

Doing it was harder as she could not completely understand Squirtle. She also didn't have king-rank Pokemon at this time, so they could also not translate it.

She called a guy who could draw and started to get Squirtle's description. She had already called her big brother for a king-rank Pokemon.

Even after hours of work, they could not completely make the picture of the trainer. Finally, her big brother came.

"Brother Hymer, you are finally here. Come here and please call out your king-rank Pokemon.", said Dina.

If this Pokemon was not a Squirtle, Dina, and Hymer would not have gone to such a length. Yes, Hymer was the same trainer that had participated in the Blaze Pokemon competition some months ago.

He called out his Blastoise and said, "Ask the Squirtle about its trainer."

"Hymer, it says that its trainer is Axel Blaze."

"You mean, the Axel Blaze?", asked Hymer. He knew who Axel Blaze was. He just wanted to confirm as Axel was not the type of trainer that would lose his Pokemon.

"Yes, that Axel Blaze."

"Ok, let me call his number.", said Hymer who called his number.

Since he had met with Axel before, he had his number. But the number didn't connect. He waited for a few minutes and called again. But no response.

Hymer felt that something bad must have happened to Axel. He just had this feeling.

"Dina, call the surveillance guy and let me see the footage of Axel in the city. I feel that something bad has happened."

He took immediate action.

The city had a lot of cameras and they could see a lot. As of right now, Hymer and Dina were looking at the cameras. The cameras didn't follow inside the dark and lonely alley but before that, they could see everything.

"See, if he came out of that alley or not.", said Hymer.

"No, sir. It just looks like he disappeared.", said the guy in charge of surveillance.

"Brother, what should we do?", asked Dina.

"Call Prof. Oak and tell him that Axel has been kidnapped."

"Is he really kidnapped though?"

"I have no other explanation than this. If Axel had used a Pokemon to teleport, then by now he would have found out that Squirtle was missing and he would have come searching for it. This is going to be a high-profile case.

So, I don't want our family to intervene. Let's just inform Oak about Squirtle and Axel.", decided Hymer.

###

Tring.. Tring.. Tring... Tring....

Katchak!

"Hey Oak, How are you?"

"Red, we have a serious problem.", said Oak.

Hearing Oak's serious voice, Red also got serious. It was not every day that Oak would get serious. He was normally a happy-go-lucky guy.

"What happened?", asked Red.

"Axel had been kidnapped.", said Oak.

"What? Do you have any idea where he might be?"

"No, and I am going to the violet city where he was last found. You also come here."

"Alright. I will be there in 10 minutes."

Traveling towards multiple cities was not a problem for people like Oak and Red. They could just teleport with their Pokemon.

Oak and Red checked the footage with much higher detail. They didn't want to miss anything. Of course, the phone was not connecting.

"So, it is confirmed that Axel has been kidnapped. But by who?", asked Oak.

"There are a lot of people who would try to kidnap him but I just cannot tell for what reason.", said Red.

"What comes to your mind?"

"I think it is those Seven deadly sins. They did it before and Axel also had done a mission against them."

"That is a possibility. If they could teleport a few cities away, then they are powerful. Let's investigate first. And yes, Red you are responsible for telling the family.", said Oak.

"Oh come on. Why can't it be you?'", protested Red but he also knew that he had to be him as Oak was not so close to Axel's family.

###

The family was obviously devastated to hear about Axel's kidnapping. Noah and Axel's father were strong enough to hold it in but not Axel's mother and sister.

"Red, is my brother going to be safe?"

"Of course, he is. The kidnappers must have wanted something and they will call us as soon as possible. We will give them what they want and we will get Axel back.", said Red trying to calm Agnes.

But Red knew that the call was not going to come. If the kidnapper had the power to teleport a few cities away, they were very powerful and they didn't need anything from a young trainer like Axel.

###

"Alakazam, do you feel the psychic energy around here?", asked Oak.

They were at the same alley where Axel was kidnapped.

"It is faint but I can tell that someone just teleported from here.", said Alakazam.

"Can you tell where they went?"

"I can tell that they had teleported like 5000km away. Not more than that."

"Are you sure about it?", asked Oak.

"Yes, I am sure."

"Red, get me all the cities that are in 5000 km radius. I need it fast.", shouted Oak.

This time Oak was sure that Axel had been kidnapped cause Axel's Alakazam didn't have the power to teleport so far.

Meanwhile, Squirtle was finally able to meet with Axel's family. It cried a lot and went to hug Agnes and the other Squirtle. It was very scary.

Seeing Squirtle like this, Dina was heartbroken. It was just a kid and its trainer had disappeared. So, she just wanted the poor Pokemon to feel better.

"Hey Squirtle, come here.", said Dina and gestured it to come near her.

"I know nothing good is happening. Your trainer disappeared and everyone is sad. But don't blame yourself. If you were with your trainer then you might also have been kidnapped.", said Dina.

Squirtle removed its tears from its face and looked at Dina.

"Do you know why all of this happened? Because you were weak. I am not saying that you are not training hard enough but you are very weak. If you want to save your trainer then you must train hard.

Other big men are searching for your trainer so he would be okay. I think you should train and get powerful in the mean time. Don't you think so?", asked Dina.

"Squit.. Squirtle!!!", it nodded. It felt that Dina was talking in some sense.

"Ok, then from now on until your trainer is found, I will train you.", said Dina with determination.

Squirtle was also determined to get stronger as fast as it could.

"Miss. Dina, thanks for doing this. I don't know what I would have done to Squirtle right now.", said Noah, the uncle of Axel.

"Don't worry, we are from the Toise family. We take care of our Pokemon species.", said Dina with a smile.

###

Axel felt his consciousness as he woke up again. He didn't know the amount of time he was here but he could guess that it had been a couple of days. None of the kidnappers had come to contact him.

At first, he thought to stay silent so that the kidnapper would not know that he had woken up. But after he became hungry, thirsty, and dirty, he had to shout for help.

He was so thirsty that every word he spoke burned his throat but he had to do it.

"Help, somebody, help me!!!", shouted Axel.

But there was no response. Since his eyes were closed shut, he could not see but he could tell that there was no light in the room. His vision was pure black.

He had been shouting for hours, and then suddenly something happened.

Even though his eyes were covered in cloth, he just felt that there was no light as it was completely dark. But then he felt a change. Even with his eyes closed, he saw some brightness.

Someone had lit the light of the room.

Then he heard a creaking sound. He could clearly tell from his aura sense that there was a person coming from the door. The door looked heavy as the man seemed to moving it with force.

Since he was blind for hours or days, his hearing capacity had increased a lot. He could hear steps coming from the door. The steps were heavy telling that the man was big or fat.

"Hello, Mr. Axel. It is quite a pleasure to meet you. Not in these conditions but... you know what I mean.", said the man.

The voice was very robotic. It looked like they had done some edits on the voice. They seemed to be very careful.

"What.. Cough.. do you want?", asked Axel in a rough voice.

"'What do you want?', isn't that a lame way to start a conversation? I don't know why people like you ask that. Why don't you start with a hello or hi?"

"Ok then, Hello, My name is Axel. Who might you be?"

"Isn't that nice now? A basic courtesy. Something that you famous people tend to forget."

"You have not answered my question and can I get something to drink?"

"Oh, you are tight, huh? If you want to know my name so much then let me introduce you to me. You can call me L."
