Hunted ch.2
Disclaimer: I own nothing of Pokemon or ANY of its affiliates...that is all.
As I woke up the next morning I felt as though something was a little…off. I ignored it, thinking it was just my body trying to adjust to not being surrounded by a fence most of the day. After I decided that that was that, I went back to Nacrene city. As the day went on I kept noticing that people kept looking at me funny. Now, when I say they were looking at me funny, I don't just giving me dirty looks. No no, they were still giving me those I mean looks that would make you laugh. My day continued as such until I was approached by a medium height man in a red coat and a top hat.
"Frank! There you are, I've been looking for you all day! Listen I-"
"Uh...I'm sorry sir but my names not frank." I interrupted.
"Oh, right, right, right, sorry, Francine, I need your opinion on something."
"I'm sorry sir but I don't think you understand: I don't know who you are!" I yelled, finally getting the point across.
"Well why didn't you just say so? I am the ringleader of this circus, Flipendo!"
Realizing he was the only other unusual looking person here I asked "If you're the ringleader then where is your group?"
"Hmm...I believe that they are at the cafe. As a matter of fact, I was just about to go there. Would you care to join me?" he asked.
Having nothing else to do I accepted his invitation. We had coffee, he introduced me to all of his circus members, and exchanged a few jokes.
"So, Grey, what do you do for a living?"
"Well I'm recently unemployed actually." What? It's technically true.
"How come?"
"Well I loved the job, couldn't get enough of it. I had more money than you could shake a stick at. Hell, I didn't know what to do with most of it, so most everyone asked me when they needed something to get by until their next paycheck. Then something happened that made me realize it wasn't worth working there anymore. So, I unofficially resigned." I said, getting the gist of what happened across. As I started to get up I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"Grey," it was the accordion player "some people in team rocket uniforms just came by asking if I knew where you were. If I were you, I'd get out of here as quickly as possible."
Just as he said that the TV was turned on. "We interrupt your regularly scheduled program to bring you this breaking news! Hi, I'm Christina Blackwater just five miles south of Nacrene city at the sight of what investigators say used to be a hidden team rocket base. I have been told that it exploded at approximately three 'O clock just last night. Although officials are baffled as to how it happened, it is believed to have been done by a double agent working for a currently unknown organization. We will now return you to your regularly scheduled program."
"... well that was brief..." said Flipendo
"Yeah, who knew that team rocket was trying to grab a foot hold here in Unova? Am I right? ...uh Flipendo, what are you doing?" I asked as I saw Flipendo get up on the table
"Please, call me Flip." he said to me "*clears his throat* TROUPE! AS YOU HAVE JUST HEARD, THE TEAM ROCKET BASE WAS SUCCCESFULLY DESTROYED! WE NEED TO LEAVE NACRENE BEFORE TEAM ROCKET FINDS US! LUCKILLY, GREY HERE IS WANTED BY TEAM ROCKET, SO HE WILL BE OUR SCAPEGOAT! NOW EVERYONE, MOVE!" and with that they all ran out the door and Flipendo jumped off the table
As he was running out the door I ran after him, wanting clarification. Like anyone who had found the person who had blown up their job. "WAIT A SECOND! YOU'RE THE REASON MY JOB BLEWUP!?" I yelled after him "You work for team rocket? *sigh* And to think, I was just about to offer you a part in our group." I was about to clarify that I am no-longer part of team rocket when I ran into one of the two grunts looking for me. "oof! Watch where you're- ITS YOU! RICHARD, GET OVER HERE!"
TO BE CONTINUED
A/N- hey all, sorry that I took so long. Its just that I takes me a while to think of some good ideas and to get the motivation to get any thing done. Something that would be really helpful would be really helpful and probably get updates quicker would be for you people to give me some suggestions on what I should write next, Just a thought. Well anyways, tell me what you think, what I could do more or less of, or just give me some ideas. Over and out.
