Episode Four: A Break-In to Remember

"Ruggy! You had better not leave me in here!" There was shattered glass everywhere and alarms were blaring in my ears. At least my sense of hearing was mediocre compared to other Pokemon's or I'd probably go insane.

The idea that ghosts could become solid at will didn't come to me until Rhugo had done so and delivered a swift kick to my behind, sending me crashing through the window. Not fun, more like pain and a heck of a lot of noise.

"Bonzai! Get the juice and get out of there!" Oh, there he was. I should remind myself to give him a good pounding later, but for now down to business. I looked around and quickly grabbed the bottles that contained the desired liquid and bounded back out of the window.

"Now, what the hell you go and do that for?!"

"Hey, it worked, right? Don't get your tail in a knot, let's just get out of here!"

Luckily enough we weren't being followed as we disappeared behind a random building.

"Cheers!" We clunked our bottles together for what seemed like the thousandth time and took yet another swig.

"Ahhh, this is good stuff." I wiped the dark liquid from the fur right above my mouth with the back of my hand. My head was starting to feel weird, but it felt kind of good at the same time. Nothing I've ever tried before.

Rhugo took a few gulps as well and leaned back against the wall. "Yeah, this beats Oran Berries off the vine by far. So much more buzz to it."

"To the free life, Ruggy."

"To the free life." We both raised our bottles only slightly before taking another swig.

"Hey! All of the wine was stolen! Why would someone and take that and nothing else?" Wine? Wonder what that is. Oh well, who cares. I took another few gulps.

"Hey, that Mankey's got it!" I looked up to find a human pointing at me, yelling his freakin' head off.

"What? I didn't do nothing." I hiccupped and sagged against the wall. Only then did I notice that Rhugo had completely disappeared.

The human was about to reach me when I saw a strange figure land right in between us. I stared in disbelief at the large dog-like creature as did the human that was going to attack me. I noticed quite a few things about it immediately. It was bigger than me, for one, and it was very, very blue. As soon as it landed, I found myself surrounded by a thick mist.

"Well don't just sit there like a drunk! Run!" A surprisingly female voice emitted from the creature's mouth. I shook all of those annoying pending questions from my head for the moment and stood up. Or attempted to stand.

"God damn it, Bonzai, you really are drunk! How did I let Mew put me up to this?" How in the world did she know my name? I wondered. And Mew…isn't he a legendary? I was snapped out of any thoughts when the human took out a Pokeball and yelled.

"Go! Machoke!" The ball opened as soon as it hit the ground, revealing a startled Pokemon.

"What is it this time?!" The Machoke raged, then glanced at its trainer. "Oh, it's you."

"Machoke! Attack that Pokemon! That Mankey took our wine!"

"Yeah, yeah, alright. You better give me extra snacks tomorrow for this, that's all." The Pokemon was a blue-grey color and looked like it was just bulging with muscles. I watched as the blue dog glared at the Machoke, then turned towards me.

"Seriously, get off your ass and get moving!" I groaned and finally stood up.

"Who died and made you king?"

"Queen."

"Whatever." I frowned.

"My name's Suicune. Take care to remember that or I'll kill you when we meet next. Now, are you going to get going or do I have to let Machoke here have a few goes at you?"

"I'm up…" I groaned again and started running as the Machoke launched its first attack.
