Hear's the next chapter guys... I'm on a roll.. Hell yeah!... But this chapter would differ from the others since I made a serious turn of events so I'm thinking of changing the rating if things continued down this path.
SO please enjoy and review.
"Why are you following me," asked the boy as he glared at the one who was accompanying him.
"Well, I thought that we're going the same way anyway so why not go there together," the girl answered ignoring the slight annoyance on the question posed at her earlier.
The boy simply ignored her since he didn't have any choice anyway. After the battle she had last night, she was received the Cascade badge and the other pokedex from Misty. And before they left, Misty also asked them of a favor.
"Uhm before you go, could I ask a favor," the gym leader said. "Saffron City has been experiencing some difficulties with the pokemon there and Sabrina has been having a hard time dealing with them, could you two help her out. It could also be beneficial for you Lynette since Sabrina is a gym leader."
And that was the reason why the two of them are now traveling together, even if it was Dexter was against it, he just couldn't refuse the gym leader now, since they did helped him out a long time ago. But it was all in his past now.
"Hey how far is Saffron City anyway," asked the ever-cheerful Lynette. Yet she was still oblivious to the annoyed face Dexter had on.
"Why don't you check it out on the pokedex, Misty did say, it had that function," the boy answered with out turning around. He really wanted to avoid meeting those people again but it was all too late now, since deep down he understood that whatever was causing the pokemon over at Saffron to go wild should have something to do with those people.
"Hey, it says that it should take two days from Cerulean. I guess we're going to camp out tonight," The girl said cheerfully ignoring the fact the boy was in deep thought.
The two continued walking, Lynette was looking at the forest that surrounded as they walked. But there were times when she thought she saw something moving over the trees but she kept brushing it off thinking it might just be some wild pokemon finding food to eat. But the sightings kept getting more frequent as they went father from Cerulean.
"Hey Dexter," the girl said getting closer to the boy who got startled by their sudden closeness.
"Wha-what now," the boy asked completely confused at the girl.
"Do you see anything in the forests," asked the girl with a serious expression.
The boy looked around trying to see if he could find something in the trees. But there was nothing there so he simply looked at the girl with a more confused look.
"I swear I saw something in those woods," The girl said before taking the thing more seriously.
"Anyway, it might be simply just some pokemon looking for food," the boy said before continuing his walk. "Just ignore them."
The girl looked at the boy and thought she might have over think the situation. She then shrugged it off before following the boy. But before they could get far, she saw another shadow. She immediately called for her Cyndaquil and ordered it to use Flame Thrower.
"What the hell are you doing," Dexter shouted as he saw the huge amount of flame going into the woods. "What if you start a forest fire?"
"I'm sure something's there and it isn't a pokemon," the girl said with a small grin in her face. "It might be one of those men you mentioned to us at the gym."
Dexter wanted to talk back but something jumped out of the forest and landed in front of them. It was a man, and as she suspected it was a team Olympia member. He had an orange shirt on and was holding on to a card that looked like three-of-Club.
"I've been found," the guy said nonchalantly before releasing his pokemon. "Piplup, water gun!" the man's pokemon then obeyed and started shooting a large amount of water at them.
The water wasn't actually aimed at the pokemon instead it was aimed at the two trainers, which caused them to jump back. They did heard about this, people who would use pokemon to attack humans.
"Dexter leave this to me," Lynette said stopping Dexter from even doing what he was about to do. She was already fired up for the battle but considering it as a type disadvantage, she knew would have a hard time. "Cyndaquil, use smokescreen, then prepare to attack with tackle!"
The small mouse pokemon followed its master's order and blanketed the whole place with smoke causing the visibility to drop. This caused the grunt and his pokemon to have a hard time dealing with his opponent but it was a huge advantage for Lynette. Before they even knew it, Lynette's Cyndaquil had already tackled the Piplup a few times causing the enemy pokemon to get dizzy from the number of times it got attacked in the head.
"Damn it, Piplup," shouted the man as he heard his pokemon getting pummeled out there. "Piplup get out of there and try to retaliate with another Water Gun." The penguin pokemon quickly came out of the smoke and aimed its attack on the last place it was attacked. Luckily it was able to hit the Cyndaquil blasting it out of the smoke.
"Oh no," Lynette reacted as she saw her pokemon flying out of the smoke. "Defense Curl quick! And reduce the damage!"
"Not so fast," the grunt said before charging in for another attack, but before he could even give out an order he felt a quick blunt to his head.
It was Dexter, during the whole commotion, he took the chance to get behind the man and use a rock to quickly knock him unconscious.
"Hey it's over now," Dexter shouted signaling his friend to come closer. But instead of a thank you he was greeted with a huge punch in the shoulder. "What is it now?"
"Well, you just interrupted my battle you know," the girl, said before giving the boy another punch.
"Well if you haven't notice the pokemon you were fighting has already got knocked out by your attacks earlier," the boy said calmly the followed it with a sigh. "I on the other hand saw this and thought it was weird so I decided to stop the trainer."
Lynette then quickly gave the Piplup a quick look before realizing he was telling the truth. It was already unconscious. But how could it still attack in such a state, she thought before looking at the man in front of them.
"I guess we better bring him with us for now so that we can interrogate him over at Sabrina's place," Dexter suggested as he started lift up the body and bring one of the man's arm over his shoulders.
Lynette simply nodded as they continued on with their travel. But night came before they could even reach Saffron City so they decided to camp out for the night. Before preparing for the dinner, they decided hat tying the man up at a tree would be for the best. The two then decided to split up the work. Dexter volunteered to search for the wood they were going to use, leaving Lynette with finding the food they were going to eat.
After a few minutes, the two rendezvoused back at the campsite and prepared to cook whatever they found. But to Dexter's relief when he decided to search for food as well since what Lynette brought back weren't even edible. Some of them were even coated with poison. Lynette simply laughed this off while Dexter scratched his head as he prepared the fire.
"Is it ready yet," Lynette said while holding on to her stomach. She was already slumping down as she rested on one of the trees.
"Just wait for a few minutes," Dexter said as he busily stirred the soup he was preparing. He wasn't the best cook but at least he learned some skills before actually setting out and he thought that if he ever left the job to Lynette they'd probably eat nothing for the night.
The two waited a few more minutes before Dexter gave the signal to eat. The food wasn't the best they had but at least it was bearable. Time passed as they sat there and ate the food; soon the thug woke up and started demanding to be let go.
"And why on earth would we do that," Lynette asked as she continued to gobble down her food.
"Well, if you don't then you'll hear fro my boss," the man threatened as he tried to escape. "Bet you don't even know who you're against am I right?"
"Ha! like we're scared of some people who can't even find worthy henchmen," Lynette retorted before being stopped by Dexter.
"That's enough Lynette," Dexter said and looked at the man with serious eyes. "I might actually know who you're working for but that doesn't mean I'll let you people have your ways."
"Then you're prepared to actually fight those kind of people," the man said as he started to laugh. "Then you people are actually mad to try and fight them, heck I'll tell you something now. The only thing I know about them are just rumors. That means only a few has even seen their faces in the organization. And the fact that there are already these many people following them means their considerably powerful."
Dexter looked at the man who continued to laugh after saying things about the organization he worked for but a few more minutes and the pokeball besides him started to shine and the pokemon Piplup came out of it. It still wore those swirling eyes meaning it was still unconscious but iwhy would it come out without its master's permission.
"Hey! Who told you to come out," the man said as he shouted at the pokemon. But the pokemon didn't even fazed as it walked closer to the man before firing Water Gun at his mouth. Lynette and Dexter couldn't even move as they continued to watch the man drown from his own pokemon's move.
When Dexter finally snapped out of his shock, he hurriedly stopped the pokemon, but it was too late. The man has already drowned. Lynette stood there and quickly looked away when she realized the man has died. Dexter also stood there holding the pokemon on his man before realizing it was already stiffening up. The pokemon actually followed his master.
"What the hell's happening Dexter," Lynette asked as she continued to look away. Her eyes were actually starting to tear up.
"I guess who ever Team Olympia is plotting they don't want to give too much information even if its to people who are part of their team," Dexter said while setting the dead pokemon down on the ground. "I guess we better call Misty and tell her what happen before setting out for Saffron.
Lynette simply nodded before getting her phone and calling the gym leader. She told the one over the phone everything that just happened and was advised to wait since a peroson with a Pidgeot would immediately come and collect the body. Lynette then hanged up the phone before tunring to Dexter who was already on his own world.
Dexter stood there emotionless; he didn't have the same face he would wear when he would complain about things. He was thinking of what the people behind this were thinking when they were even prepared to kill their man to keep their own identity a secret. And if the missing dexholders were the one behind this then what would have caused them to take such radical measures. Surely he has already gotten himself along with Lynette into something both of them couldn't get out of.
So what did you people think...
