Chapter 1: The assignment
There have been reports of a strange new Pokémon by Cinnabar Island. Nobody knows what it is. Nobody knows what it can do. But this much is known: nobody who ran into it is alive. We see people every day who try and catch it. The next, the bodies of them and their Pokémon come back to the shore. One thing's for sure. It can kill people.
Now, me, I'm no Pokémon trainer, I'm a CIA agent. The American government officially protects Kanto, Johto, and all the other Pokémon regions. I've been tasked with finding intelligence on this Pokémon, dubbed "MissingNo.", and when I find a way to contain it, I am to do so. My name is Michael. This is my story. I am narrating, after all!
I was out on the beach, pretending to be a tourist. Well, I'm not gonna lie to you, I wasn't entirely pretending. But still, I needed to see if I could find out anything on this MissingNo. I bought a hot dog and walked around a bit. I can't help but admire the beauty of this place. Back home, we don't have Pokémon! We only have boring regular animals. But on the other hand, that's why we're allies in the first place. Having an army of Pokémon trainers as allies gives you a certain edge in the battlefield.
I pulled out my cell phone and put in my Bluetooth. My cell phone has a listening device in it. I can point it at anyone, and I can hear their conversation from 50 feet away. I listen for the words "MissingNo", or any mention of the creature. And then I hear "Number Finder". There's my contact.
I walk up to her. She's a Pokémon ranger, known as Jade. The people here have a strange habit of naming their children after minerals. We're going to be partners for the duration of this assignment. We need local help. And she's pretty handy, or so I've heard (I've never worked with her). She has survival skills, stealth, cultural understanding, and best of all, a good team of Pokémon. I walked up to her, and said "Found". She understood that we are to work together. We left the beach and went a nearby park, an area less crowded, and not likely that anyone was listening in on us.
"So, have you found any info on MissingNo?" She asked.
"No. I haven't." I said
"Ok. Well, I'm guessing people are too scared to talk about him. Frankly, I'd be too." She said. "Well, we need to do an equipment check. Tell me what you have on you."
"Well, I have a switchblade, and a sniper/assault rifle. More weapons will be sent in later in the mission, for now it's too risky to carry bigger guns." I said.
Her reply to that was "Fine then. Anyway, I follow your strategy, and I only have my Charizard." "We'll catch more if needed".
And so I began my journey. Little did I know what was at stake here.
