Announcer: ATTENTION ALL POKÉMON FANS TRAINERS AND CO-ORDINATORS, THE BRAND NEW GAME SHOW; 'TRUTH OR *GIRLY SCREAM*'! BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE VERMILLION CITY POKÉMON FAN CLUB AND ASSOCIATION. DISCLAIMER: POKÉMON IS NOT THE PROPERTY OF THE SHOW'S DIRECTOR.

(The lights go up on the inside of a large circular arena, revealing packed out stands with cheering and screaming spectators. A spotlight illuminates the contestants; Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Brock, Tracey, May, Max, Dawn, Iris, Cilan, Gary, Paul, Barry and Trip.)

Ash: (Looks around nervously.) Where are we?

(Another spotlight lights up, to show the host; a hooded figure in a matt black cloak. Beneath his cloak, he wears a leather jacket, leather trousers and leather gloves. The hood on his cloak shrouds his face, besides his mouth.)

Salvador: (Raising my arms up in the air.) Ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to my twelve fanfiction, and brand new game show. Welcome to 'Truth or *Girly scream*'!

(The crowd goes wild.)

Salvador: Now, introductions are not really needed, so I'll just list them off. Our contestants are; Ash Ketchum, Pikachu, Misty Waterflower, Brock Harrison, Tracey Sketchit, May Maple, Max Maple, Dawn Berlitz, Iris Wilder, Cilan Meadows, Gary Oak, Paul Silver, Barry O'Farrell, and Trip Lister.

(The audience clap, cheer and chant. The contestants wave, except Paul and Trip.)

Barry: (Storms up to me.) Hey, tall cloaked and stupid! Where are we? What are we doing here? If you don't tell me in ten seconds, I'm gonna give you a fine!

(I clasp a hand, calmly but firmly, around Barry's mouth, muffling his shrieks of protest.)

Salvador: This is a game show, in which the readers out there can control what happens. The readers can review this story and submit questions for any of the characters here. But they don't have to only ask questions. (An evil smirk adorns my face.) They can also challenge characters to dares! (I glare, menacingly, at Paul and Trip.) Here are the ground rules. (I give Barry a push, making him stagger backward towards the group.)

Rule one: Make sure that your question, or dare, is easy to read. I don't appreciate having to try translating poor grammar, or lazy text-type.

Rule two: Please try to submit some clean questions and dares. I will make this fiction an M rated one for chapter two but I don't want the characters to be killed too often. Well… (I sneer at Paul and Trip.) Not most of them, anyway.

Rule three: other characters from the Anime, Manga and Games universes can be introduced by special request, as long as a question or dare for the character in question is submitted as well.

Rule four: If any submitters of questions, or dares, want to be featured as my co-hosts for a chapter or two, please sign your review with your pen name in the following way: e.g. -Creative Writer 2000-

By the way, this fiction will be written in script format. It's extremely hard to attempt a story like this in story-telling format. If you don't like script-form fictions, this is not for you. See you later, in the first round of Truth or *Girly scream*.
