Chapter 105 - Death of a warrior

Alex saw a big crater a hundred metres in diameter and few feet deep formed in the earlier battlefield.

All the trees few hundred metres radius were now either completely destroyed, uprooted or barely made it with half of their roots out.

Alex himself flew hundred meter back from the collision aftershocks and if not for his aura, he would be wounded badly and even his spine may be crushed at least.

He still felt there might be some cracks on his spine from collision.

He looked around to see his pokemons. And he saw his Espeon laid on the ground unconscious, not far from her were Charmeleon and electabuzz laid on their stomach not even moving. If not his aura sense telling they were still alive he thought they passed away. Piloswine was smashed on a big rock and Onix smashed on the ground with cracks all over the body

Pidgeot not far from onix but his one of his wings bent in different direction. Snorlax was now bleeding from his head and shoulder and laid asleep from his movements of his stomach.

All of them were wounded or were badly injured.

His official starter Haunter was much better than them. He was just few metres away from him. He was still trying to rise above the ground.

Alex then looked over to their opponent. The tyranitar was still standing strong and haven't taken a single step back from his earlier position.

Then he looked at Alex and roared so loudly that almost everyone could hear him in the foggy forest. His roar spread far.

To Alex it was a declaration," I WON THE BATTLE "

And after that the behemoth stood there. Not even moving a single part of the body.

Alex looked at him with his aura vision and saw him slowly losing his life energy. And soon it was extinguished.

Alex understood that tyranitar put his all on the last attack and he has now died.

He completely defeated his pokemons before dying. He has died in the battle and he still remained erect.

Alex saw his body was covered with wounds especially a big wound near his heart which was t there before the attack probably from an attack of his pokemon bypassed the mountain and hit him there.

Even though they took down tyranitar they still lost and that too badly. Not one pokemon remained standing after facing an injured pokemon.

Soon a flapping sound was heard and Alex looked up to see a golbat. Normally he would be vigilant if not for some playful marks on it's body courtesy of his healer, Happiny.

He held his arms to bring him towards him. " Did the others send you to look at the situation?"

He nodded his big head and then with the support of golbat he stood up on his legs. He wobbled back and forth and then with golbat as support withdrew the pokemons and then came in front of tyranitar.

He was thinking what he should do. If it was earlier he might left him be food for others but now this Tyranitar earned his respect and he decided to give him a proper funeral worthy of someone like him

He asked golbat to bring other here although puzzled he did as he was asked. He flew away to bring others while Alex went off the broken trees and started to build a pyre for the dead fighter.

By the time he returned with them, Alex has erected a one and half metre pyre with the help of zubat who cut the trees down with air cutter.

He arranged the rocks and used butter to make the woods more easily combustible. After they arrived first thing he did was make Happiny heal his pokemons enough to wake and attend his funeral.

While she healed him, Alex told them about the earlier battle and told his planning for tyranitar. although puzzled with his behavior, Bill agreed after all not facing him himself and all.

Meanwhile Suicune was impressed with him and even licked and nudged his face with her head.

Soon all the pokemons became conscious after treatment and they soon began to remember the last battle and search for their opponent who still stood erect near the now freshly made pyre.

Alex then told them," Tyranitar though our opponent and enemy was worthy fighter who fought for his belief. And his last stand touched my heart so I want to give him a funeral. Does anyone object it?"

They looked at each other and communicated silently.

Soon electabuzz came forwards and agreed on behalf of all of them.

" Ok then. Snorlax, electabuzz lay him on the pyre. And Charmeleon blow this torch."

Snorlax and electabuzz took the dead tyranitar and placed him on pyre. Alex then placed some more wood on his body And Alex then walked towards him and burned the pyre

Slowly fire began to pick up and the pyre burned brighter. The Tyranitar slowly burned down to ashes.

The pokemons released attacks in the air out of respect for their dead opponent and other too followed.

Even Suicune and the three evolved Eevee joined it. All stood until the pyre was completely burned off.

After few hours the pyre was completely burned out And then Alex took the burned Ash and handed over to Suicune.

He felt she was better to dispose off the dead warriors Ash. She took the ash and put it on her mane.

They then returned their pokemons but not before having erected a rock memorial on the burned ground clawed by Charmeleon saying,

" Here fought and died a loyal tyranitar who was also a great warrior.

May Arceus bless his soul."

Then the two humans rode Suicune who dropped them off near a town and dashed off before anyone could see her.

Alex and Bill saw her leaving and didn't say anything. Bill supported the tried and injured Alex towards the town and into the pokemon center.

Alex doesn't know before leaving Suicune left something on his backpack. while he was looking at the burning pyre, she left him a gift for impressing her.

In the backpack, a blue glow was seen which later faded.

What did Suicune give Alex? How will the battle and death of tyranitar affect Alex and his pokemons. Stay tuned
