Chapter 4 Escape

(Narrator)

The Pokemon were getting jittery. Slowking started thinking of a plan. "My friends, do not panic. Slowly but surely we would be able to get out of this hideous place. All we need is an ingenious plan." Magmortar retorted: "Yeah, please suggest your wonderful plan. Mewtwo is so powerful. Do you think he would easily let us escape? Face reality."

Slowking tried to remain cool. " If we work together now and escape, it is better than us being devoured by the murderer 1 by 1. In this way, even the murderer will be spared." he explained, hoping to convince the other Pokemon.

Unfortunately, this was met with a swift and sulky rebuttal.

"Fine. Do whatever you want. Dont get me involved in your fruitless attempts." Magmortar bellowed.

"Okay, so who has any ideas?" Slowking enquired.

"Why not we smash the walls of this demonic castle down and get out?" Machamp suggested.

"But the walls must be very sturdy." Alakazam warned.

"Well, we might consider abusing the Guts ability that both Machamp and Conkeldurr have by poisoning them. This raises their attack power." said Tropius. "Are you out to kill us?!" shouted Conkeldurr.

"No, you see, I can produce Lum and Pecha berries to cure you of your poison when you are low on health then provide Sitrus Berries to regenerate you to full strength." Tropius clarified.

"What a great idea!" Slowking cheered.

The Pokemon set out to work. Clefable repeatedly adminstered Toxic to Machamp and Conkeldurr while Tropius focused on producing the berries. Ambipom acted as a courier, collecting the berries from Tropius to the Fighting type Pokemon.

"Oh I wished I had Heal Bell. This would speed up the process so you only have to produce Sitrus Berries!" Clefable sighed.

"It is okay, I can manage it." Tropius assured Clefable with confidence. Meanwhile, Tentacruel was trying to persuade Magmortar to help by using Will-O-Wisp so as to reduce the number of berries needed to be produced, since burn takes a longer time to drain health. However, Magmortar remained stubborn, and refused to lend a helping hand.

After what seemed like an eternity, dusk arrived. Both the Fighting type Pokemon were exhausted. The smoke and dust settled. Shockingly, the walls remained intact. The efforts by the Pokemon were all in vain. The morale of the Pokemon sunk. Everyone was staring daggers into Magmortar, blaming him for not helping. Magmortar remained unrepentant, claiming that the walls could not be broken down and it was a waste of time in the first place.

" Obviously you dont want to help, you probably are the murderer!" Tentacruel complained.

"Blast you, don't spew rubbish. I know you are a stupid poison type and you always do dirty deeds but please dont spread it to us." Magmortar retorted.

Tropius immediately intervened and chided them. " We must not let tensions rise too quickly. We cannot let chaos engulf us. Please work together!" But, the Pokemon knew that there would definitely be more of these disputes in the future...

Slowking, seeing that everyone was tired and weary, suggested that everyone rest for the day and think of more ideas tomorrow...
