Cynthia is surprised by her catch, she is speechless right now, she could tell that she has gotten a lot stronger than before, being able to catch Zoroark means that she has already surpassed herself.

She walks towards the Great Ball and picked it up and looks at it with sparkling eyes. ​​

It has been years since having caught a pokemon and Zoroark is her first, she turns and looked at Julian trying to confirm if this was true or not.

She was really surprised by her performance as well, she was always a step ahead of Zoroark which is the reason why she was able to capture Zoroark.

Julian "You did well, with Zoroark by your side you can deal with Cyrus easily"

He said and praised her, he is really impressed by his girlfriend, he could see how much she has grown from the first time he saw her.

Julian "We should continue going up, we cannot waste any more time around here and maybe our new friend can help us"

He said and looked at the Great Ball in her hand, she quickly realized what Julian meant and called out her Zoroark.

He is still weak and bruised by from the previous battle, Julian took out some berries and handed it over to Cynthia.

Julian "Feed him, he will recover soon after"

He said.

She nodded and put the berries right in front of Zoroark, he looked at the berries and back at Cynthia, he looked at the person who just caught him after a hard-fought battle, suddenly Zoroark remembered something and grabbed the berries and ate them, he then grabbed onto Cynthia's arm and tried to drag her on top of the mountain.

Seeing this both Julian and Cynthia are surprised.

Julian "Let's follow him, something must be going on up there for him to side with Cyrus"

He said.

Cynthia decided to listen to him and both of them followed Zoroark to the top, it didn't take them long before they reached near the entrance of the maze, with Zoroark by their side they didn't need to hide at all, with his illusion he could hide them from public eyes.

Julian looked around and was surprised by the scene in front of him, hundreds of Team Galactic members walking around, they have set up a huge camp here, he couldn't believe so many made it till here without the league agents noticing, he and Cynthia looked at Zoroark as he was the only one who could bring them here.

Julian was right, it was Zoroark, he helped these men by making them invisible to the league agents, Zoroark lowered his head ashamed of his actions, but Julian knew he didn't do this on purpose, something is bothering him.

Julian looked around once again and noticed something, there were also some underworld guards here, they have made up camp separate from the Team Galactic members and didn't bother with them.

Julian "Those are the Underworld Guards, they are essential to my faction, don't hurt them"

He said.

Cynthia nodded her head and looked at her Zoroark and told him to continue guiding them, soon Zoroark brought them into the entrance of the maze to show them something.

Seeing what it was Julian and Cynthia finally realized why Zoroark is helping Cyrus, right in front of them is a big cage and inside this cage are little Zoruas and another Zoroark, this Zoroark is smaller than Cynthia's but is a strong one, above an elite level.

The cage that they are kept in is fused with electricity, no matter from where one touches the cage, the ones inside the cage will get shocked with high voltage electricity, this is indeed cruel.

Julian didn't think such a scenario will present in front of him, he understood why Zoroark is helping Cyrus and he also has a save the ones inside the cave.

Julian "They must be his family"

He said.

Cynthia looked at the injured pups and the female Zoroark with a sad expression, it hurt her feelings seeing these pokemon in such pain, the mother is using her body to cover the pups from touching the rods of the cage while keeping very little distance from the rods as well, the cage is very small for all of them.

An adult Zoroark and three pups couldn't be placed in such a small space.

Cynthia "How could these people be so cruel?"

She questioned Julian but he doesn't have an answer, even he doesn't know why these people are after world domination or world destruction when they all can live a happy life in this beautiful and magnificent world.

This world is not polluted, one can see stars in the sky at night, there are beautiful creatures and pokemons living happily and thriving, this world is also filled with all kinds of entertainment and the people living here are discovering new things every day.

Julian came to this world thinking that it was a peaceful world with no wars but he was wrong, no matter where he goes there will be some humans trying to destroy the world that they live in.

Seeing this Julian's wish to create a faction became more important, he will use them to put an end to people like this.
