As Julian got back to his room, he noticed Daisy and Chloe are nowhere to be around.
Julian 'Ah, I remember they said they will go to the other small villages and look around
Julian sat on the work desk and took out the three black stones he got from the old man.
Julian 'I am really lucky to find them'
He then took out some tools to remove the outer layer of these stones to take out the Mega Stone inside, he had removed many mega stones from inside a crystal so he knows what he is doing.
After hitting the stones with a small hammer and chisel, as he made a perfect cut in the middle he was finally able to see what is inside, he slowly removed the stone which revealed a black round marble inside, it is very dark with a red and white pattern in it.
It is clearly a Mega Stone and this is the first time Julian found one that looked so different from others, most Mega Stone has a very clear body but this one in his hand is dark but he could still see the white and red pattern in it, it is giving off a very chilling dark aura.
Julian "It a very rare one, I wonder which pokemon it will react with"
Julian carefully placed the rare Mega Stone to the side after removing the small fragments of black stones on it.
Julian "This stone is indeed very special, it is giving off a very dark aura, but it's too small. Maybe I can use it to create a mega stone holder for one of my pokemon"
He put it to the side and lifted the next one, he then started to hammer the chisel on this one as well, soon the stone split into two revealing the Mega Stone inside, seeing this one also surprised Julian, this mega stone is pure white in color with a blue, cosmic pattern inside it.
If the previous one seems to be fierce and evil this one seem to have both dark and pleasant aura in it, Julian couldn't explain how to describe this aura, but he was still excited to get this one because its aura is a little similar to his Absol's.
Julian 'If this can Mega Evolve Absol, I am very excited to see how he changes'
He collected the stones and put it to the side and placed this Mega Stone next to the previous one.
The last one, he took the hammer and chisel and started to separate it as well.
Soon he split the stone and found another Mega Stone and this one is also very different from regular Mega Stones, it is also black in color not as dark as the first one, it has a hint of brown in it as well, there is also a grey and orange pattern in it as well.
Julian this time is shocked seeing this Mega Stone, not because of how it looks but the aura it is giving out, it has a dark and fire aura but this aura seems to be very familiar to Tyranitar.
Julian is not able to explain how this is possible, from what he knows Tyranitar is a Dark and Rock-type, the next thing he is closest to is ground, so how can a Mega Stone exist that is giving off a fire aura but is still resonating with Tyranitar's aura.
Julian "This cave that old man found, it may be more mysterious than I thought, to contain Mega Stones that don't make any sense, I think I have to find this cave when I go to Sinnoh"
Julian looked at the Mega Stone in his hand and gripped it.
Julian "Now Tyranitar has two Mega Stones and both may lead to different Mega Evolutions, let's see what changes it brings in him"
He then placed the three very rare Mega Stones to the side and collected the black stones as well.
Julian "These Mega Stones all seem to have Dark-type energy, is the whole cave filled with dark energy or there is more to it, well I can only find out about it if I stumble upon it"
He got up and looked at his phone, he received a message from Chloe to come to the marked location she just sent him, since he has nothing to do right now he decided to check what the girls are up to.
The location she sent to him is from the fifth small village, as he arrived at the location he was called to he saw Chloe and Daisy standing there and calling him.
Chloe "Over here come quick"
Julian rushed towards them.
Julian "What happened?"
Daisy "Nothing, we were getting bored so we decided to call you"
Julian "What?"
Julian almost fell down hearing this.
Chloe "Yes, we were getting bored so we called you but don't worry we found something interesting"
Julian "What did you find?"
Chloe "Follow me"
Julian then followed her to a restaurant, it seemed to be a normal one from the outside but as they went in it was not a restaurant but a restaurant themed auction house.
Julian "You want to bid in the auction?"
Chloe "Yes, look at what they are auctioning"
Chloe then handed a paper to Julian.
Support me on pat_reon, get two chaps there daily
Julian took the paper Chloe handed to him and looked at it, they seem to be auctioning many rare items today.
Today's rarest item is the Enigma Berry, it is the rarest berry one could find, Julian was surprised seeing that this is being auctioned in this small village.
He had no use for it but people say that this berry has the power of stars in it.
Julian "Do you want the Enigma berry?"
Chloe "I don't need it, I am after this one"
She said and pointed towards a Pokeball, it is a very rare Pokeball that is only made in limited numbers per year, a Luxury Ball.
These balls have a very special effect on pokemons, the pokemons caught in it become friendly to their trainer very quickly, this ball is also plated with gold and rare expensive stones.
Julian sighed, he knew that Chloe likes shiny stuff very much.
Julian "Ok, let's get that for you, Daisy what do you want?"
Daisy "I want the Shiny Stone"
Daisy pointed at the Shiny Stone, it is also a very rare evolution stone when Daisy's Budew evolves into Roselia she can further evolve her into Roserade using this Shiny Stone.
Since this auction is selling some rare things he decided to enter, maybe he can find something interesting.
He and the girls soon sat down on a table for three and waited for the auction to start, the waiter came to them and gave them a display board which had a number on it, this is used for the bidding.
He let them order some food and waited for the auction to start.
Outside the auction house, Ash and his friends also arrived.
Ash "Guys, let's go and check it out"
May "I want to eat here, I heard the food here is delicious"
Brock "Maybe I can find something to buy here as well"
As they entered the hotel themed auction house some people followed them as well. It was, of course, the three idiots of Team Rocket.
Meowth "Are you guys thinking what I am thinking"
Jessie "Of course, we can steal all the things they are going to auction, we will become filthy rich after this"
James "Then I can buy all the rare bottle caps for my luxury collection with all that money"
Jessie "Shut up, we are going to spend it on a trip to a vacation island where there are lots of delicious food and cool breeze"
Meowth "Let's go in and see what's going on"
"Waaabaa"
Jessie's Wobbuffet came out and was about to shout but got shut down by Jessie, soon the four entered the auction house, Meowth and Wobbuffet dressed up to look like a man, Jessie and James also disguised themselves and entered the auction.
They soon took a seat on an empty table and looked around, as Meowth was looking around he froze on the spot as he saw Julian looking at them.
_____________________
When they entered the auction house, Julian felt something annoying is going to happen and he was right he saw the goons of team rocket entering the building.
Julian 'These idiots are here as well, this means that Ash is also here'
He looked around and noticed Ash and his friends at the other corner of the building.
Julian 'Hm let them be'
Julian then looked back at the team rocket idiots.
Meowth who noticed Julian staring at them started to sweat.
Meowth "Guys, I think we should abandon the plan"
James "What are you talking about?"
Meowth "Look there"
Meowth pointed at Julian, James followed his hand's direction and noticed Julian smiling at them, he felt chills run down his spine as he saw that smile.
James "Ya let's get out of here"
Jessie just froze, she is still scared of the horrors that Julian's Gyarados and Gengar has brought to them.
Meowth, Wobbuffet, and James took Jessie and excited out of the building.
Julian just looked at them leaving silently.
Julian 'They are very wise, such a waste they are being treated as useless fools by Giovanni, maybe I might have some use for them'
Julian thought and kept these three in his mind, no matter how annoying they are Julian had to admit these three are good at everything they do except stealing pokemons, stealing data they can do it, selling products they can do it, fooling people easy for them, disguising themselves without anybody recognizing them they got that too.
Julian 'They are indeed multi-talented, their talent would rot if they are in Team Rocket, I should use them for some other reasons'
Julian though and put his focus back to the auction.
He was not as lucky as he thought he is today as he didn't find anything interesting in this auction, he bought the Luxury ball and the Shiny stone for Chloe and Daisy.
The day soon came to an end as they returned to their room.
Julian 'I should get ready for the top 32 and also check out the Mega Evolution on Tyranitar and Absol'.
I know the arc is going on a very slow pace but I hope you bare with a little, I have already moved on to Sinnoh at pat_reon, and I cannot do further changes in this arc.
Well, this arc will come to an end soon so don't worry.
