Pokemon Adventures: Team Rocket's Last Stand
Chapter 1a: The Attack in Viridian Forest(Yellow POV)
The da y was bright and beautiful, and the Pidgey were simply flying through the sky, as if they appreciate the freedom given to them being flying types. There were no irregularities in the sky, only blue and gold as far as the eye. The Magikarp and the Goldeen jumping out of the water, as if seeming to taunt fishermen nearby. Ratata were chasing each other around the forest, protecting their nests from any danger that is approaching. People consider the beauty and tranquility of the Viridian Forest to be the greatest of them all.
This is my hometown's forest, where I go to think, play, and remember where it all began. My adventures began only because I was saved by Red that day. It was scary back then, because team rocket had enraged the pokemon and they had gone berserk. However, Red defeated Giovanni, and then all of the creatures of the viridian forest had calmed down. New populations were added to the Viridian Forest, however this only added more colors and texture to the forest further enhancing it's beauty.
How many times had this place been a battlefield for Team Rocket? How many people and pokemon had lost their lives to attempt to do the ridiculous things that Team Rocket set out to do? I don't even want to think about what would've happened if Red had not fought against Team Rocket. All of this peace is possible thanks to the effort of Red, Green, and Blue.
*RING RING RING, RING RING RING PHONECALL, PHONECALL!* The Pokegear that Professor Oak had given to me began to ring. At first, the Pokegear was only usable in the Johto Region due to technical limitations. That was until the genius creators and managers of the Pokemon Transfer System got their hands on it and fixed the device to work across Kanto and Johto.
"Hello, who is this?" I asked because I ignorantly forgot to check the id of the person calling. I'm such a klutz when it comes to this new technology.
"Yellow, I have captured Red, if you want him alive come to Saffron City by tomorrow at 9:00 pm. And let me tell you, we don't act nice to people who are late to our meetings." The voice answered as he hung up.
The voice had power and authority to it, however it wasn't Giovanni. I think it was Lt. Surge, because he is one of the only people I've met that actually scares me the same way Giovanni does. He told me to meet him at Saffron City, but I have no means of transportation to actually get there. Also, he said that he 'captured Red', what did he mean by capture? Couldn't he have easily said kidnapped? It would've made more sense.
Wait! I have to time to be thinking about things like this, first I have to find a way to get to Saffron City in one day. I looked down at my Pokegear and start looking through the contacts. I tried calling both Red and Blue but they wouldn't pick up. My only option left is to call Green, the current gym leader of Viridian City. He has a Charizard that can fly us over there and if Red is out of the count he is probably the only one who can rival Team Rocket's power.
"Come on...Please Pick up!" I said to myself as I heard the ringing noise for about ten seconds.
"...Hello? Yellow, what's up?' Green answered with his usual serious tone.
"Green! You picked up! Thank goodness!" After this introduction I explained the situation to him.
"I see, so Red's been taken hostage and you were told to go to Saffron City. You said you were in Viridian Forest right? I'll pick you up just wait about five minutes."
Suddenly, I started to hear heavy footsteps marching through the forest. It sounded like a single entity, but this one creature had the power to make the entire forest shake in fear. Judging from the footsteps, it was a beast with four legs on the ground. Although it sounds powerful it seems to be confused as the sound of his footsteps stops occasionally. A purple mist started to cover the air around me.
"This is sweet scent! It's trying to lure something out!"
I began to run, but the faster I ran the more frequently and the closer the footsteps behind me would get. It was moving quickly, and when I had turned around and decided to face it I saw a Venusaur. However, this wasn't an ordinary Venusaur; it had a blue flower on it's back, the skin was a night sky black, and it had red bloodshot eyes. Once the creature had seen me he had roared, not a roar that symbolizes he entered battle, but a cry of pain.
The Venusaur had used the powerful Frenzy Plant, and had destroyed all of the trees within a twenty feet radius of us. If I didn't bring out Kitty at the right moment I probably would've lost my life along with all of the poor trees in that forest. The Venasaur had roared again, his cry of pain. I can tell, this is Red's Venusaur, but why does it seem so different? Why is it in pain?
"Mr. Mime, use Psychic!" After hearing this, Butterfree and I had been slammed straight to the ground by a mysterious force. I looked up and saw a girl in a Team Rocket Uniform. With her long hair and her intimidating presence, I couldn't move because she was beautiful and intimidating. Yet I've met her before, and not in a situation like this.
"Yellow, although Lt. Surge should've told you to go to Saffron City, we were also told that we could exterminate you if we managed to get to you first. Go Venusaur, finish this foolish child off once and for all!"
No! This can't be the end! I haven't saved Red, I haven't even met up with Green yet! I can't die here! But I can't move because the Mr. Mime is still using it's Psychic attack on me. I'm pegged to the ground on my home turf unable to move! I heard the Venusaur's Roar once again, it seemed to be charging up it's Frenzy Plant. I can't dodge, it's over for me...
Chapter 1a: The Sudden Threat(Silver POV)
The town had it's usual annoying lights and noises, but I arrived here in Goldenrod city because Blue told me she was going to hang out around here in johto and wanted me to be her bodyguard. I know Blue, even if I denied she would have used any method to make me agree, and personally, I don't want to be in that situation ever again. I look at my Pokegear and see 2:35 pm, she's late. Of course, that's nothing different from what I'm used to. Heck, if it was that idiot Gold he would probably be about three hours late. I look down the street and see if she's approaching, only to see the girl with pink hair, Whitney.
"Hey Silver!" she calls out to me. Just ignore her Silver, and she'll probably go away… She calls out to me again, "Silver!" Just turn around, and start walking away…
"SILVER!" She screams as she runs up and tackles me. "Hey, what's the deal with ignoring me!"
"I'm looking for someone right now, I have no time for…" before I finish, I was interrupted by a gigantic explosion. It appeared to have been coming from the Goldenrod department store. Without another word, Whitney just made a mad dash to the department store. Seriously, didn't she think that this might be some sort of trap? Whatever, I'll go deal with it.
The Goldenrod department store, glowing brilliantly due to it's flames. I guess I never really looked too closely to notice, but it was a really awesome looking building. I rush through the crowd of people who are trying to escape the burning building, and I see no sign of Whitney. I look through the first floor, and nobody is there. I looked through the second floor, nobody was there. Finally, the third floor I could hear the Whitney's loud and slightly annoying voice. I decided to hide myself to understand the situation.
"Hey, what the heck is your problem!? Burning down this building, which is one of Johto's most important economic buildings!?" She stated. Maybe that was the point you idiot…
"We are here to take over the Johto Region, to create more water for the poor water pokemon. Seriously, with all of the land that is popping up everywhere, there won't be any room for the water pokemon. Don't you understand how sad that is?" A nameless grunt in blue clothing told her.
"I hate to disappoint you...But I am a gym leader of the Johto Region! You are not taking over as long as we gym leaders are here!"
"I see...So if the gym leaders are gone, then we can have the Johto Region? That sounds like a great idea! Seriously, the Johto region must not be worth much." The grunt said with the biggest clown smile(which was actually really creepy. Still, I guess I should start getting involved myself. I walked into the room, and then the three men instantly fell face first into the floor.
Both Whitney and I were completely confused by the situation, then I heard a voice I was hoping I wouldn't hear in this situation. The voice was laughing, as if it didn't even mind that the building was currently burning down. Only one person could be this nonchalant in this situation. It was Blue, I don't know how she did it, but she managed to take down a total of three grunts at almost seemingly the same time. Whitney runs out of the building after making sure it was empty and told me that she was going to warn the rest of the Johto gym leaders.
"So Silver, what exactly is going on here?" Blue asked, suddenly appearing behind me. I really hate it when she does that.
"Well, apparently some sort of organization is trying to take over the Johto region and sink it, so that there is more room for water pokemon to live. If you ask me, it's completely ridiculous."
"Huh, they're actually pretty smart..." Blue replied with a surprised voice.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Well, think about it. If they actually managed to take over Goldenrod they would be able to cut of the trade routes between the East and West of the Johto region. But, being in the center, that also leads room for more allied attacks against them. With minimal materials to prevent a war against them, there's just no way that this factor will have as much effect as it could."
So, these Lunatics in blue actually have a smart tactician. Interesting, I've been looking for a good challenge. Heck, this will keep me from being bored. Stopping a war before it starts, sounds like a challenge for the next heir of Team Rocket. This will be my first step in repairing my name as Giovanni's son.
**Sorry for those of you who have already read this part, but I felt like the story was missing a little bit of something. I hope you like it!**
