Chapter 195: Greed
There was a brief silence in the room. All of them knew the possibility of their death but hearing it was another thing. Another woman raised her hand and the man told her to speak. She didn't want to be rude. She didn't want to die.
"What are the ranks in Greed?"
"Ohh good question. We seem to have a converter here. There are only 5 ranks in Greed. They are
1. Cleaner
2. Member
3. Elite Member
4. Executive
5. Boss
There is only 1 boss and 5 executives in the organization. I am an elite member of Greed. I have worked very hard for it. If any of you are thinking of escaping from here then don't. We have 1 executive and 5 elite members with us today. There is no chance that any of you could escape.", said the man and moved out.
The silence of the cell was disturbed. Some of them wanted to join Greed as it seemed to be the only way to survive. While others wanted to protest. The team was now divided into 2. If all of them wanted to escape, they could have come up with a plan but now it seemed to be difficult.
The murmuring grew loud. Axel talked to Lance at this time.
"Lance, I have a plan. If the league could not get here within 4 hours we would go with the plan."
"What is the plan?", asked Lance.
"I can't tell you right now, just be ready", said Axel.
Seconds turned to minutes and minutes turned to hours. Soon, 4 hours have passed. The same man came near the cell and spoke.
"So, what have you people decided? Those who wanted to come with us, step forward.", said the man.
7 people from Axel's cell stepped up. It was a staggering number. But Axel could understand. If you are told to choose between joining and dying what would you choose? The rest of them believed that the league would come to save them.
"You have made a good choice. We would now be leaving after an hour from this region to a different region. After an hour, your judgment will come.", said the man.
After hearing this announcement, some of the people inside the cell wanted to join Greed but the man firmly refused. The people inside the cell started to panic. Axel, Lorelai, Raze, and Lucious were calm. Axel had told them not to panic. After 30 minutes Axel spoke, "All of you, I have a plan to escape. I can get us out of this cell without any noise. But first, we would have to find our Pokeballs if we are to survive."
Axel gave a short description of what was going to happen. All of them nodded their head. Axel started his plan.
"Arise", he said softly. Slowly the shadow of Axel started to move and Shedinja came out.
Shedinja was always with Axel from the beginning. When Axel started to get drowsy, he said specifically said Shedinja to be in his shadow and not interfere cause Shedinja was also affected by 'Sleeping powder'
It used 'Shadow jump' and got out of the cell. It then went near the guard and used 'Hypnosis'. The guard fell asleep immediately. Shedinja took the keys and unlocked Axel's cell. It then went to Lance's cell and unlocked it too. All of the prisoners didn't make any noise as instructed by Axel.
All of them slowly came out of the cell and out of the big room. One group went to the left and the other group went to the right. They had to take this risk and find the Pokeballs. Axel, Lorelai, Lance, Bloom, Kelly, Raze and Luscious went to the left side. The place was not heavily guarded. Maybe they were preparing to leave or maybe it was night. However, the group didn't care. Shedinja would use 'Hypnosis' when it saw any guard so they were not detected until now.
After 10 minutes of running and hiding, they finally found the Pokeballs. Axel opened the glass door and entered with the group but suddenly heard a loud explosion from the other side.
"Did the other group go caught?", asked Lance in a small voice.
"I don't know but we don't have much time.", said Lucious. All of them started to find their own Pokeballs which was hard. All the Pokeballs were jumbled up in one place.
"Take as many Pokeballs as you can. Doesn't matter who it belongs to. We just need to fight these kidnappers and inform the league. We would then get our Pokemons back.", said Lucious.
Luckily Axel found 3 of his Pokeballs which were Beedrill, Nidorino and Gogoat. Axel took the other 5 Pokeballs and got ready to fight cause he could hear the footstep of multiple people.
Axel saw 5 people coming from the distance. They were 10 people in the group including Axel and Lance. So, 2 of them for 1 of the kidnappers. However, Axel had a different plan.
"You two, go inside and release all the Pokemon. Tell them to create havoc and assist us in the battle.", shouted Axel. Axel and Lucious faced 1 kidnapper each. The remaining 6 faced 3 kidnappers.
The kidnapper came and immediately threw 7 Pokeballs. Axel had 9. Axel released all the Pokeballs and told them to help him get out of there. The Pokemons understood and started to fight themselves. Axel could not instruct 9 Pokemons at the same time. 5 of them were not his and he didn't know if Gogoat had any attack moves.
So, he only focused on Nidorino. Shedinja was smart enough to battle itself and Beedrill was too big to fit in the room. So, Axel had thought to only take it out in an emergency.
The battle for freedom had begun.
