"Electric Orb, return!" shouted Jay and Blake in unison. The two Pokémon shot back into their balls.

"Gyaronix, return." The water/rock Pokémon fled back to its ball.

"Fearow, Birdy!" Dee threw two Super Balls, and out of the balls came her Fearow along with Birdy. Hopping onto Fearow, Dee shouted, "Birdy, we’ll need to escape, let Ultra sit on you."

"De," agreed Birdy.

"Tra!" Ultra rushed to his friend, and climbed on its back.

The others rushed on the Pokémon. Jay and Agua went on Winger, and Blake on his Fearow.

In the lead, Dee shouted, "Let’s blow this joint!"

"You actually said that?" shouted Jay.

"Shut up!" shouted Agua and Blake.

The two Fearow, the Winger, and the Birdy quickly exited the cavern onto to discover themselves flying backwards into the cavern.

"Arg!" growled Dee. "I forgot about the whirlpool."

"To stop a whirlpool, we’ll need one of our own! Whirlpool, we need you!" Aiming, Agua threw the Super Ball straight up into the whirlpool, and Agua’s Pokémon appeared in the water. "Whirlpool, reverse the whirlpool’s air with your psychic attack!"

Slowly, the air suction reversed directions and became a strong pull upwards.

As the three birds shot upward, Dee could see the large figure of the same Dragonite as before rising.

"Birdy!" shouted Dee. "Use your quick attack and your agility to fly up ahead to try to stop the Dragonite." With a small sigh she added with a murmur, "Somehow."

"De-De!" Birdy quickly shot up at full speed to the surface.

From down below, back in the cavern, Dee heard the loud screech of her Articuno, and slowly, it stopped. Then she heard the angry shouts of the water bird Pokémon. But slowly, the shouts became chanting. Something was going to, or about to happen.

"Uh oh," muttered Jay. "We’ve just stepped out of the frying pan and into the fire."

"Or out of the cavern and into the water," growled Blake. "Look straight ahead."

Towards the surface, the water parting slowly closed, and as did the water around them. Lugia and Auqtrias were closing the exit to above.

"NO!" screamed Dee. "Articuno, if they can open the doorway, you can do it too!" But there was no use. Articuno probably couldn’t even hear her, much less open up a water path.

As the exit slowly closed in around them, and water rushed around the four trainers, Dee suddenly had an idea as water surrounded her. In three words, she summarized her idea. "Agua, use Whirlpool."

Muffled by the water, Agua quickly shouted, "Whirlpool, create . . . own whirlpool!"

Suddenly, from not too far away, Dee could fell the urge of Whirlpool’s whirlpool, and she, with Fearow not too far awhile, slowly moved towards it.

As she entered it, she gasped for air. Dee was flung up into the air above the water, with the waiting Birdy, Ultra, and Dragonite.

Quickly being caught by Fearow, Dee shook off the water and shouted to Birdy, "We can get that Dragonite to go away! Give it your ultimate poison attack! Toxic!"

With a small cough of water, Jay added in, "And Ultra, your confusion attack, then paralyze it with your thunderwave, then psytoss it into the water!"

"Bird-De!" Birdy’s eyes changed to a deep shade of red and with a mighty blast, from Birdy’s mouth, toxic gases poured out onto the Dragonite.

On Birdy, Ultra’s eyes glowed a bluish color and as did the Dragonite. The Dragonite was flung back into the water. Quickly using this time to his advantage, Ultra shocked the Dragonite with his thunderwave, and psytossed the Dragonite into the water.

"Now lets get outta here," said Blake.

"We can’t," growled Dee. "Articuno hasn’t surfaced yet. Neither has Whirlpool."

Blake sighed. "Well, I’m off to get help, the coast guards will come as soon as possible to save you guys and Articuno, and most-likely fight off the sea-birds."

"Row!" screeched his Fearow, and he flew off.

Agua sighed. "Well now what?"
