[Santos "Shadow" Almaz]

Santos was back in Alabaster Caverns working on training his team. Akiko, Swamp and Trumpet were pushing blocks around with strength. Hope and Del the Delibird were cheering them on. The only one not helping was Scorpio he was curled up in a warm spot in Santos's sleeve and he had stated he wasn't coming out in no snow area and that was that. It didn't matter to Santos. Scorpio had proven himself battle capable before.

[Santos "Shadow" Almaz]

As the team moved blocks around an Earthquake started shaking everyone making pokemon and trainer flinch and fall on their behind. Swamp grunted as he gathered those who were in a spot and shielded them with his body and mass

Santos grunted as he braced himself and soon the attack stopped "Status Report," he shouted.

His pokemon made various comments of being alright

Scorpio made a displeasured comment

Trumpet made a noise of worry followed by Del

Hope hummed "Trumpet and Del are worried about something. They said she's coming."

Santos looked at Trumpet and Del. "Who?"

Both made noises

"They said Big Mama." Hope stated

"Big Mama?"

"Pupitar!" A growl was heard as a Hyper Beam was fired towards the group

Swamp grunted and put up a protect shield and took the attack but even with the protect shield it was powerful enough to shake the room

After the attack a Pupitar came out and it was mad. It made growling threats and other noises

Both Trumpet and Del made a panicked noise

"Big Mama is mad." Hope stated "she wants us to leave and that Hyper Beam and Earthquake were warnings to move it and that she's got plenty more where that came from.

Santos hummed "well excuse me Big Mama but I don't think I want to move. Swamp give this overgrown a blast of your Scald attack."

Swamp growled and blasted the Scald.

Big Mama propelled herself out of the way of the attack and came at Santos with a Chip Away

Santos grunted but then he was teleported

A crash was heard followed by a familiar cry.

Hope had used Ally Switch to switch herself with Santos and had taken the hit. She was on the ground heavily damaged and Big Mama was going to attack her again.

Swamp roared in anger as he came over with Waterfall and slammed into Big Mama sending the pokemon into the wall away from Hope. He growled in anger

Big Mama slowly got up and growled in a threatening tone

Swamp growled back in anger and the two were at a standoff

Santos grunted "Hope!" He ran over to her.

Hope groaned as she tried to get up "I'm okay." She moaned but she flinched and couldn't get up

"like hell you are." Santos stated "I've told you not to switch into attacks but out of them."

"She was going to hurt you." Hope moaned

"it hurts me more to have you jump in front of me." Santos growled as he pulled out a Sitrus Berry. "here eat this quickly and we're getting out of here now and to a center in town."

Hope hummed as she ate the berry.

Del threw a present at Hope

Santos grunted but the present exploded into healing energy and healed Hope

Hope hummed "thank you Del."

Del made a noise.

Trumpet made a noise

Santos looked towards Swamp and Big Mama who were facing off. "Swamp!" He called

Swamp grunted

"we're leaving. She's made her point. This is her turf let her go."

Swamp growled then pounded the ground with his Strength boosted fist leaving a mark. He then grunted something like a threat

Big Mama growled and slammed the ground as well leaving a similar mark

Swamp grunted in surprise.

"what is it Swamp."

Hope hummed "that's interesting."

Santos hummed "what is."

The Pupitar growled

Hope hummed "she has always known fighting Santos, this cavern been her home slash battleground all her life. All the ice type pokemon picked on her, and she never known peace or anything outside of battle even though she's named Big Mama she isn't one. She just a very hurt female who's turned her fear and pain into rage against all and soon everyone inside here came to fear her.

Santos hummed "pain and fear into rage against all... gee... that almost sounds like someone I know..."

Hope hummed "you Santos."

Santos hummed "yeah, before I joined Team Origin I had a lot of anger and hatred. Anger at the school for not letting me having my space, hatred at the companies who wouldn't give me a chance to prove myself and anger and hatred at myself for being so damn afraid of people and other and if Team Origin would have given me any flak in their work then maybe I would have been like her. Lashing out at everyone who even thought of me as a threat and showed them what a real threat I was and I would have been a soul twisted by dark emotions."

Swamp growled then grunted something to the Pupitar

The Pupitar grunted in surprise then looked at Santos.

Hope hummed "it's true, You and my trainer have similar stories but my trainer has come to realize something. Anger and Hatred only lead to pain and more anger and hatred and more pain. The only way to break the cycle is to learn to let your anger and hatred go and learn to move on." She hummed as she got up and she went over to Big Mama "even thou you hurt me, I forgive you for it is I who came here into your home and I want you to forgive me and the others for intruding in your home.

The Pupitar seemed to pause then her stance seem to relax and she stated something

"She forgives us." hope stated

Santos hummed "you know there's a lot more to this world then just one place. I can take you from this place if you want and show you that there is more to this world."

Swamp made agreements followed by Trumpet and Del

Big Mama looked at Santos then growled as she gave a tip of her body.

Santos pulled out a pokeball "Welcome to the team Big Mama." He caught her

Hope hummed "okay Santos now about that trip to the Center..."

Santos hummed "we could all use one." He picked her up "come on Team, let's blow this Popsicle stand."
