Journey Towards Greatness Chapter 22
Advertisement
Julian walks towards the gate and opens it as he enters the proximity of the tower he starts to feel an airy feeling, he looks towards his left and right to find nothing except some nameless tombstones, Cubone also starts to feel scared and tightly holds onto Julian's coat
Julian "This is going to be really troublesome, I hope I am able to find a strong ghost pokemon and of course help Cubone to meet his dead mother's ghost"
He walks towards the building and opens the door which makes a creaking noise, he walks in to find an empty floor, there were some tombstones inside as well but they had names and time of death on them as Julian walks towards one of them he hears a creaking noise to which he turns back to see the doors close shut
Julian 'looks like they started to play their pranks, I have to be very careful they are not aggressive they just want to play but they might sometimes go a little too far while playing their pranks'
Julian 'System scan the tower and tell me the exact number of pokemons present'
System 'Scanning, scanning finished, there are a total of 17 pokemons in the tower'
Julian '17, that's a lot'
Julian "Cubone lets start to search your mother ok"
Cubone nods and doesn't say anything, Julian starts to explore this floor but soon he hears creaking sounds again but this time it's coming from above, he looks up to see a chandelier swinging then it suddenly snaps seeing it coming down towards him he jumps away dodging it completely and see it crashing down onto the floor causing a huge bang sound, hearing the bang Cubone and Kabuto gets scared but calms down after Julian creases them saying that nothing happened.
Julian 'These ghost type pokemons are really reckless they don't know the consequence of playing this type of pranks, well I can't do anything I don't have any dark type pokemons with me right now'
After calming down and finally finished searching the ground floor he starts to move towards the first floor as he starts to climb the stairs a flying vase comes at him from nowhere but he easily dodges it as he was prepared and was ready to take on any kind of challenge they throw at him, when he reached the first floor after dodging numbers of flying vases and chairs he sees a two Gastlys looking at him happily and suddenly disappeared.
Julian "I this keeps on going it will be troublesome, It looks like I have to face it head on if they throw anything simultaneously"
Julian takes out a pair of MMA style rubber gloves which has metal knuckles on them and wears it.

Julian "I didn't think that I would be using them here, I just bought them for training purpose but now I have to punch some flying chairs and vase coming at me, and for back up, Monferno come out"
Monferno comes out and sees that they are in a dark and abandoned place he gets confused and looks at Julian so Julian explain him their situation and tells him to break anything that comes towards them, Monferno nods his head, Julian starts to search the first floor he sees some Gastlys appearing through the wall and as they see Julian they quickly disappear, there was no sign of any ghost hear so they start to walk towards the second floor as they are about to climb the stairs a desk comes crashing down but its turned shatters by Moferno as he punches it with his fist as they continue every kind home items comes flying towards them vases, flower pots, benches, chairs, desk, wooden planks, floor tiles, etc everything that comes towards them Julian and Monferno punches and kicks them away either breaking them or send them flying backward and finally they reach the second floor when they reach there they see a Gengar Julian didn't want to miss this opportunity and commands Monferno to engage in battle.
Julian "Monferno activate Foresight then use focus punch as fast as possible"
As Monferno has learned the skill foresight which allows him to attack ghost type pokemons,
Monferno without wasting any time sprints towards Gengar and uses focus punch with full power as Monferno was so fast Gengar didn't get time to dodge as was sent flying and crashed on a shelf but as soon as it crashed it got up and disappeared from there seeing this Gengar escaping both Julian and Monferno were pissed.
Julian "What the fuck its so difficult to first land an attack on them and now after finally getting a hit, they fucking escape"
Julian was really pissed this time and he and Monferno went on a rampage around the tower they would be greeted by multiple flying objects but those all were destroyed by them after some time it turned into a game between Julian, Monferno vs the ghost pokemons, surprisingly Cubone and Kabuto were having a time of their life seeing this scene presented before them as they watched how Julian and Monferno were rampaging around every were, one floor after another they conquered all, now the ghost pokemons were helpless as all their equipment were destroyed by Julian and Monferno, they never have felt so defeated in their lifetime but they were enjoying it.
Finally Julian and the rest had reached the 7th floor and this was the last floor of the tower, both Julian and Monferno were tired but they could still continue as they still had the stamina to spare but they didn't need to continue as they were looking around they entered a room where they saw a Marowak roaming around the room but something was different about it, they looked carefully and they noticed that it was a little transparent, it was a ghost.

Cubone who was sitting on Julian's solder suddenly jumps off and start running towards this ghost Marowak crying, Marowak also turned around to see Cubone and started to call him as Cubone tried to jump and hold his mother he passed right through her, he didn't understand at first but his mother started talking to him which made him cry more and after sometime she started to disappear slowly, seeing her slowly disappearing Cubone tried to grab her but it was no use, while disappearing she was smiling, smiling because she was able to see her son one last time, seeing his mother smile at him he stopped crying and looked at her as she slowly faded away, this scene was all seen by Julian as he stayed there not interfering as he knew this was his last time to see his mother and every second was precious.
Cubone was just looking at the spot where his mother had disappeared, Julian finally decided to walk towards him and lifted him and placed him on his solder
Julian "Cubone your mother will be very happy to know that you didn't cry after she disappeared she will be proud to have such a strong son, but you know crying will help you reduce your sadness in your heart so whenever you feel you want to cry, cry till the pain in your heart goes away"
Cubone just nods his head and forces himself to not cry but he was still a baby he could not hold himself and started to cry, as he cried Kabuto climbed down and clung onto Cubone as if he was hugging him until he finally stopped.
Julian sighed looking at Cubone as he knew it was very painful to lose family as he looked outside it was about to sunrise
Julian "Looks like I couldn't catch any of those sneaky bastards, Cubone are you ready its time to go back"
Cubone just nods his head and didn't say anything as he was still sad, Julian climbed down and sees the mess he and Monferno made around here and couldn't help but laughs awkwardly he walks out of the tower and was about to open the gate when he felt like someone taped the right solder he turns around and see no one was there when he felt a tap on his other solder Julian is no fool and he knew that another Ghost pokemon trying to mess with him, he pretended to turn left but again turned right to see a Gengar, Gengar was also surprised that his trick didn't work
Julian "Arnt you the same Gengar who attacked us on the second floor"
Gengar nods his head smiling and agreeing to Julian
Julian "What do you want, if you still want to play around I cannot as I have other things to do"
Julian opens the gate and walks out after sometimes he feels like someone was still following him, he turns around to see Gengar again.
Julian "Don't tell me you want to come with us?"
Gengar again nods his head happily, Julian was first surprised but he soon figured it out and didn't ask why he wanted to follow him as Julian already knew the answer as he had seen it in Gengar's eyes the desire to become strong so he wanted to follow Julian as he had witnessed how strong Julian and Monferno are together, Julian takes out a Pokeball a brings it in front of Gengar
Julian "Then what are you waiting for come with us"
Gengar becomes happy and presses the Pokeball's button as he goes inside as the Pokeball shakes left and right and finally makes a sound confirming that the capture is complete.
Julian "Gengar come out"

Nightmare Infinity
God's Dimension was created for the purpose of evolution. It would push its chosen through countless trials, horrors and nightmares to fulfill this goal. Only through the constant threat of death will humanity be forced to evolved. The chosen are those who have given up on life. Those who have nothing to live for, and those who life has nothing to offer. With the hope of finding that meaning, they enter God's Dimension. In the beginning God used the stories of mankind to create these trials. Sending the chosen into the worlds of monsters and demons, and granting them the powers of the inhabitants of those worlds. But with man's evolution God changed these trials, sending the chosen into new and more dangerous worlds, which in turn granted them access to the powers of those worlds. The first change came when God sent the chosen into the worlds of horror and action movies: Alien, Predator, The Grudge, Nightmare on Elm Street, Starship Troopers, and many more. The second change came when God included the worlds of Anime, Manga, and Light Novels into its trials: Fate/Zero, Btoom, Highschool of the Dead, Akame ga Kill, Naruto, One Piece, Attack on Titan, Terra Formars and many more. Now God has changed the trials once again and included the worlds of Video Games into its trials. In recent years the number of video games that come out each year has skyrocketed. More worlds, greater challenges, and increased danger await the chosen of God's Dimension. No one, even the veterans of God's Dimension, knows how this will affect them. The number of powers and worlds God's Dimension allows access to has once again increased, but will they survive long enough to make use of them? *Warning* This story is a Terror Infinity fanfic and will heavily cross over with different video games, anime, and manga. I will try to use ones which have already well known stories so as to not spoil anyone. Though I might change it up here and there to keep the plot interesting. Another warning is that this story will, or at least try, to show the despair and horrors each character went through. There will be a some gore, mature content, and some pretty disturbing stuff, but nothing too much. A story is meant to entertain and a grimdark gorefest is not that pleasant to read.

The Ratter
By gnawing through a dike, even a rat may drown a nation.-Edmund Burke There are three kinds of monsters that every rookie adventurer can be expected to face. The first is the goblin, the small green humanoids that often cause problems out on the frontier. The second is the slime, the sneaky ambush predator that likes to drop down from the ceiling and seems to be just about everywhere. And then, there's the giant rat, the plague of the sewer and the tavern cellar. But they're nothing but a petty annoyance, right? Right? Wrong. Giant rats multiply like wildfire and mature very quickly. Unlike rats, they can very quickly exceed their available food supply and start hunting for human flesh the moment that nothing else is available. A hungry swarm, unchecked, can eat a city alive. But not if The Ratter has anything to say about it.
