5th treasure [walling it up]

[captainash]

[Hey, guys, do you know what Johto and Kanto have been missing these last few years?

Giant robots. Pirate-themed giant robots.

But luckily, this one will be flying around and stopping pretty much everywhere on the way, so if you want a ride now's the time to say it.]

[Apollo doesn't respond, just staring straight ahead. The feed switches to split-screen to show the Solrock and the Lunatone in the other cockpits along with Apollo still staring at nothing. This probably isn't what's supposed to be happening now. The Solrock and Lunatone make confused noises for a bit.]

The time is not yet right for the Wings of the Sun to soar once again.

[The voice sounds like an older, more authoritative Apollo, but Apollo's mouth isn't moving. Aquarion trembles for a moment, then pulls back its right fist and throws a punch at the sky. It's arm extends as far as it can go, then the forearm opens up to reveal another identical forearm, which extends along with the fist. The new forearm opens up to reveal another identical forearm, which extends along with the fist. And then it happens again. And again. And again. As Aquarion's fist continues to ride an ever-lengthening arm, it becomes painfully obvious that these extra forearms can't possibly all fit inside the original one, and that conservation of mass is being blatantly violated here. Eventually the fist punches a hole through the sky to reveal glowing energy beyond, and Aquarion flies towards the portal, retracting its arm as it goes. A moment before it enters, it separates into the three Vectors, Apollo and the two Pokémon glow and vanish from the cockpit, appearing on the ground below, and the Vectors fly through the portal and out of Johto, the portal closing behind them. Finally, the 4th wall distortion washes over Apollo and the two Pokémon and they all get sent somewhere else.

Congratulations, Ash. You've had your first encounter with a Super Robot that's capable of leaving Johto under its own power, taking all explanations for what you've just seen with it. Enjoy.]

[Well, that is. Well. That's. How. ...What the hell did he just witness here?]

.........Great. Now Father and Kio are never going to believe me when I tell them about this whole thing.

[Ash, sweetie, that is the least of your problems, believe me.]
