Austin was now in Fuchsia City, his little brother at his side, "Alright then, now I'm in Fuchsia, and I have to get to their gym, three more badges and I can go to the Indigo Plateau and the Pokemon League!" Austin said with a fiery passion in his eyes, "Okay that sounds fun," Lance said a bit uninterested, "but first let's check out the Safari Zone, I've heard about it and always wanted to see it!" Austin was annoyed, "Lance, didn't you hear me, I don't have time to side step things like my next gym match?!" Lance shook his head, "you also have a responsibility to yourself and Professor Oak, you told him you'd catch more Pokemon and you could use them yourself, and the Safari Zone is full of Pokemon for capture!" Austin shot a look at Lance, "Then what the heck are we waiting for, let's go!" He said shooting off towards the Safari Zone.
Lance found Austin shortly after looking in a Zoo like area of fuchsia City, almost a teaser showing you what Pokemon could be found here, "Come on Lance, there's the entrance." Austin said walking over to the gates. There was a fee, but a small price to pay for some of the Pokemon that they could catch. They went inside the Zone and just as it sounded, it looked similar to an African Safari, with Pokemon everywhere, Austin first view were to small Pokemon one pink and one blue, "Those are Nidoran," Austin said, "a male and a female, I gotta catch em!" Austin hurled two safari balls, the rules of the zone stated you could not battle the pokemon, only attempt to catch them off guard, fortunately these two went down easy, Austin had more problems with the others he found. Lance found what looked like an egg lying on the ground, so his curiosity got the best of him and he picked it up, he turned it over and it had eyes. "Exeggcute!" the egg yelled as five more showed up to defend it, "What the heck?!" Lance cried out, "Those are Exeggcute," Austin explained, "think of them as 6 living entities, but one Pokemon, I'll take care of it Safari Ball go!" A few shakes later and Exeggcute was his.
Austin's next pray was a Pokemon that appeared to be a large Rhinoceros made out of rocks, Austin laid some food down, and a breeze carried the scent over to it, Austin snuck up behind it and cast a Safari ball while it was distracted, success one more Pokemon for the Professor. A herd of bull were roaming the fields, these were Tauros and very well known for their brute strength, Austin threw a rock and the Tauros herd went ballistic, in the commotion Austin caught one and ran away. He saw a Pokemon known as Chansey, and did it have the right name, Chansey was an elusive Pokemon, so for know he ignored it, but there were two Pokemon seemingly clueless by the Safari Zone's river, they were Slowpoke and Psyduck, both could use Psychic abilities, but neither seemed too intelligent, Austin caught them easily, his next Target was different. Two powerful bug types a Pinsir and a Scyther, Pinsir was a Stag Beetle with very large horns and a powerful grip, Scyther was a praying mantis with deadly blades on its arms. Austin wanted to get close but knew their volatile nature, so he had a perfect plan, he sent Lance to attract the attention of Scyther, while he attracted Pinsir, the two angrily chased Austin and Lance, until the two met and ran to the side, when the two bug types saw each other there was a fight. They were on each other's ground and after a battle had begun Austin said enough and caught them off guard making them easy targets. He kept seeing this Chansey, but it kept running away, almost like it knew Austin wanted to catch it. Austin found other things to occupy him, to try and distract him from the Chansey, Venonat was a good capture adding to his bug roster and Tangela Austin just liked this viney Pokemon. Austin's time was almost up, so he just searched around, he saw a glisten in the nearby grass, "What's that?" He asked running over and it was a pair of gold teeth. "Ew, Austin you're not going to keep those are you?" Lance asked, Austin nodded, "For all we know someone is looking for these, I'll just drop them off when we leave…" he was cut off by a scream and he ran to check it. Austin ran to check to scream, it was the Chansey that had been taunting him, fighting with another Pokemon, this was a Kangaskahn, like the one Giovanni had, this one had a young in it's pouch though, Chansey must've gotten too close for the parent Pokemon. Austin knew the only way he could protect Chansey was to catch the powerful Pokemon, so he got it's attention, pelted it with rocks and knew the Pokemon's weakness, "Take this!" He shouted throwing a large rock towards the child, the parent ducked down to take the hit, knocking it out, "Safari ball, go!" Austin threw a ball at the downed Pokemon catching it shortly after. "There you go Chansey, you're safe now," Austin said smiling and walking out, Chansey ran over to him. "Chansey, Chansey!" The Pokemon said, tugging his pant leg, "you wanna come along with me Chansey?" Austin asked. "Chansey, Chansey!" The Pokemon shouted jumping up and down happily, so Austin pulled out a Safari Ball, tapped Chansey and had his last Safari Zone Pokemon. "Okay, now that hat's done, let's get out of here." Austin said, but was stopped immediately at the gate, "young man we saw everything you did in there," the guard said to hm, Austin thought he was in trouble, "that was an amazing display and we'd like to take you to meet the Safari Warden!"
Austin was taken to a lodge not far from the Safari Zone, they went inside and saw a man sitting at a desk. "mffrm urgh uschlafa sulon" was all the man could say Austin and Lance were kind of nervous, then Austin had an idea, "Wait a minute, sir are these yours?" Austin asked reaching into his pack and pulled out the teeth he had found, the Warden nodded quickly and took the teeth, re rinsed them off and popped them in. "Oh thank you so much, I was worried they were gone forever, and it would've taken weeks for a new pair to arrive from my dentist!" The warden said. "No matter, young man we saw what you were capable of in the Safari Zone, catching so many different Pokemon, and even getting a Chansey, one of the rarest Pokemon in the Safari Zone!" Austin blushed a little, "thank you sir, I didn't think I did that great," he said trying to act modest. "Well, in any case you did fantastic so I can assume you're here for our gym," This caught Austin's attention, "Well well, I saw that caught a raise, well then I think I will tell you a few secrets." Austin sat and listened to the Warden's advice and was prepared to use it for his next gym match.
