Curse of Sky Pillar
It was a chilled fall evening. Viridian City was quiet that night. Everyone was asleep of just to quiet to be heard. In the distance you could hear zubat and other night pokemon chattering about. That was all the sound there was. Other than that there was dead silence. It was intimidating too. So much that a charizard would think twice before going anywhere near the usually charming town. It was as if the silence just took over the town. As if every person knew that something would happen that night. And sure enough something would happen.
Giovanni, leader of Team Rocket waited inside his pokemon gym for his visitors. His trusty was Persian sitting by his side. He grumbled, "They're late. Why must they always be late? They know how important this is." The Persian just purred in response. Even though his master was upset, it was at times like these when he was most respectable. After a few more minutes of waiting the doors of the gym finally creaked open. And a young girl entered the dark gym.
Her name was Casey. She had short blonde hair with a pretty black bandana covering the top of her head. She wore the standard Team Rocket uniform of black. Her shirt had a red R on it. Around her waist was a belt with six pokeballs attached. She was an excellent trainer. Making her a huge asset to Team Rocket. She was one of the finest trainers around and had gained fame for her remarkable skills. After winning a special tournament she was awarded the permission to carry as many pokemon with her as she wished. Other pokemon she owned were sent to relax on her father's estate. That is, until Casey wanted to use them. However, one thing that the public didn't know about her was that she was an undercover Rocket. If she wasn't battling your pokemon, she was stealing them.
But this mission was different. She didn't have a huge quantity of pokemon with her. She only had six. Just the right amount for this mission. She approached Giovanni with a guilty smile on her face. "You are later again Casey," said Giovanni. "What took you so long? And where are the others?" Casey gave him a look of guilt. " It was.... dark. I couldn't find my way. I'm sorry. If I made light I would wake up the town. It won't happen again. I promise." Giovanni still looked annoyed. "Well, at least you came. But where are the others?" Just then the door lamed open and two more people came in. On was a large man, with the same uniform as Casey. He had a grubby aftershave on his face and smelled like barbeque sauce. The other was a small little man in a white trench coat. His glasses were a few sizes to big and he was constantly pushing them up.
Giovanni snarled. "Where were you to!? I have been waiting for hours!" The two cowered at Giovanni's rage. The large man finally spoke. " Well I was hungry and needed some grub. Dr. Jenkins didn't want to stop but I insisted. So I got a pizza." Jenkins grumbled, "We would have been here earlier if Don wasn't so hungry."
Giovanni spoke up again, "Never mind that! We have more important business to attend too. I hope you all know why I called you here." No one spoke, Casey shrugged, Jenkins coughed, and Don scratched himself. Giovanni sighed, "You three have been assigned to carry out a very important mission. You all know about the pokemon rayquaza don't you?" They all nodded. Rayquaza was a powerful dragon pokemon the lived on an island not far from Pacifidlog town in the Hoenn region. It was said that it lived in n abandoned tower known as the Sky Pillar. Giovanni continued, "It would be a remarkable asset to all of team Rocket if you were to go to this island and confront the beast. Go to its lair and battle it. When you knock it out cold scrape some skin off of it. Then bring the skin to me. With that special skin we can get rayquaza DNA and clone it. We can sell them for an incredible price." He smiled. "We would all be rich." The others gasped. It was a risky mission but in the end it would pay off. Who wouldn't want to buy a legendary pokemon?
Giovanni spoke again, "So, are you up to this challenge?" The others all spoke at once. "YES DEFINATLEY!" They were all excited now. And they were quivering with delight, down to their toes. "Ok then," Giovanni said, "The boat for that island leaves tomorrow. I expect you to all be there." Don and Jenkins eagerly spoke among themselves but Casey spoke right to Giovanni, "It would be an honor to do this for you father."
