"There he is!" A Houndour yelled. "He kidnapped Hizi! This is madness!" Another Houndour yelled. A group of thirty Houndour charged at Acerios.

Acerios was in a rage, "Take them down!" he yelled as he dashed with Quatic and Gust at them. Quatic would continue attacking with Aqua Jet while Gust kept on with Aerial Ace and Slash.

More and more Houndour came flooding in. With the power of the egg they were much stronger. They had teams that used different attacks. A group used Roar. Another used Embargo. They rest attacked with a mix of Beat Up and Flamethrower.

Acerios put on fire proof clothing, he retracted Gust. He and Quatic went through the waves, Acerios used brute force to fight the Houndour, while Quatic kept them at bay Acerios called Cheren, Roxie, Burgh, and Elesa, "I need your help in Castelia, I'm standing here fighting back the hoards of them but I think I can only keep them for at least an hour." he said.

Hato stood and top of a building surrounded by body guards. "Oi Acerios! Retreat or I'll destroy your egg!" Hato threatened. He was holding Acerios' egg.

Acerios smirked as he put down the phone, "Pathetic threat, you wanna know why? Without that egg my duo and me will wreck your team and you. So if you want to live come face me like a man, or are you just a wuss?" he said with no doubt in his voice, secretly Gust came out and soared behind the building, sending waves of wind to weaken them like Tail-Wind and Defog, once he got up he would end this with a Slash.

A Houndour jumped off the building and landed on Gust. "So you want me to call of my army and face you. Fat chance. You kidnapped one of my soldiers too. My army could crush you like a bug. The only thing holding them back is me." Hato said.

Gust reflexed right before it touched, it slashed on range with Slash. Acerios puffed his hair up, "Then prove it, and you know why I haven't given up? It's because I care about my friends, and you're wrong here. I won't let up until you learn the truth." he said as he smashed down 2 Houndour with his fist and foot.
((I called back up a few posts ago, where are they? Also where is Hizi in this?))

The mysterious man appeared. He took the egg from Hato. "Listen to me!" He called out. "You said you love and care for your pokemon. That is true. I'm sorry I accused you for not because of these Houndour. I have seen these Houndour are corrupted." The mysterious man said. He jumped off the building and some how landed gracefully next to Acerios. He handed the egg to Acerios. "Traitor!" Hato called out. "Loyal Houndour, remember Acerios is the one who kidnapped Hizi. Show him no mercy!" Hato commanded. The gym leaders called Acerios. "We are on our way." They said. Hizi stayed back.

Acerios nodded as the fire in his eyes died away, "Thank you sir. I will keep up to what I have said.". As he did he put the egg under lock and key. He jumped onto Quatic and propelled them both up with Aqua Jet from Quatic, just as they got up Gust arrived. As Hato would come into sight attacks from back and front of Aqua Jet and Slash would be sent.

"Acerios, Stop hurting my people!" Hato shouted. "You got what you want. Now leave!" Hato commanded.

Acerios stopped the barrage, "If that's it I have terms before I leave. You must not attack anything or anyone unless they are a threat to your survival. I know you were raised by abusive trainers, but if you give us a chance I promise we won't hurt you. If you want to know the truth, believe that I don't kidnap, I care about my friends so why would I?"

"You don't kidnap? You must be joking. Do expect me to believe that Hizi walked up to you and joined you?" Hato asked holding back a laugh.

Acerios scoffed as he heard, "I can stand here all day long until we find a point where we both agree on it. If you don't want to believe that i didn't kidnap Hizi then fine, but you hear me out on this. I didn't know you left that egg for me, I'm sorry about it and I know it's being taken good care of." he said as he picked his head up.

"I'm way over the egg. There is something you can do for us. There is an deserted island. If you can take the entire H team there we won't be able to attack anyone else." Hato said.
