(Last lines before the bell)
"I just saw Serperior dragging Francis inside that house" Luna said
"We must see what is going on" Leo said as the team headed to the house
As they were heading toward the house, they saw a television set outside. They also saw a campsite area with a fire burning. The team approaches the campsite, but the campsite disappears. Luna can sense that the campsite is a illusion of what Serperior is capable of. She happens to be correct as she turns on the television screen. What Luna sees on the television, makes her want to save Francis again.
"Welcome to an introduction of the "Kindness VS Evil" movement. I am the leader of this movement. I am a Serperior. You see, for those of you who do not know, we are doing a "Kindness VS Evil" movement. The goal is to tell you all that evil rules for us pokemon in this scene. Here is an example of what this movement does" The Serperior says as a different scene appears on the screen. Luna is beginning to get scared of what could happen to Francis.
"In this scene, a young human girl is trying to tell her human friends that they all need to spread kindness to the world of pokemon. The girl has just won a gym badge at the Waterfront Gym, and almost kissed a human boy, when I grabbed a rope and took the boy away( If you are paying attention, this is exactly what happened to Francis, except that Francis did not tell about spreading kindness at that time). Once we take the boy away, we trap the boy in our Kindness VS Evil house, which is located to the right of your viewing area. Once in there, we make sure the boy is knocked unconscious before we start our plan" The Serperior said as Luna gets scared again
"Our plan is simple, and that is to eliminate kindness, and to maintain evil. Maintaining evil is on the minds of the following members; Gengar, myself, Zubat, Ninetales, and Gastly. From what I know, Gengar has been eliminated by a team known as team Angeles" the Serperior said as Luna now knows that the pokemon mentioned are following the team
"How do we eliminate kindness you ask? Simple, for those who interferes with our plans, there is a thing called the trap for you. If you ever attempt to save the one inside the house, you will not see your friend again. How you will not see your friend you ask? Well the answer is to trap the ones who try to save the person, and for me to get rid of the person and their traces. All we do to get rid of the person is to burn their traces in our campsite and to eat the person" The Serperior said as Luna got furious.
"We can also erase the memories of those who try to save the person" The Serperior on the television said
Luna gets angry. She wants to save Francis as soon as possible. Luna does not want Francis to be eaten by Serperior.
(Current situation and Location- Near Serperior's house, and 10 seconds after Luna heard about Serperior's plan)
Luna and the team has just listened to Serperior's plan on a television set. Luna knows that Serperior, and the rest of his team want an evil world. Luna wants to stop Serperior before something bad happens to Francis.
"We must stop Serperior now" Luna said
"I know, but how?" Leo asked
"We must figure out what Serperior did to the other victims of his attack" Luna said
"That's an idea" Leo said
The team decides to look for evidence of what happened to Serperior's victims. They found nothing, but Leo noticed something on top of a tree.
"Looks like Serperior left something behind from his victim" Leo said as the team came over.
"Good find Leo" Luna said
The team climbs the tree to find not just one item, but also a video tape. The team takes down the items and decides to look at them. The first item is a camera with a note written on it. Luna reads the note.
"To those who find this camera,
Serperior is not to be taken lightly. He will try to injure those who try to save the one in his house. Serperior already took my trainer away from me by eating him, and burning his traces. I managed to video what Serperior does to his victims. There should be a video tape. I am in Serperior's house, but in the safe area of it. There is only one safe area, and it is in the basement. I heard about Francis of team Angeles being captured by this Serperior. If Serperior gets a chance, then Serperior will erase all of Francis's memories. The only way to save Francis, or those captured by Serperior, see me in the basement.
Signed by Francisca the Pipulp
Luna has read the note by Francisca the Pipulp. She has a clue that Francisca is the female version of Francis's name. The team tries to find the basement, and they do. They see a Pipulp who can speak English without pokemon speech.
"Hi, are you team Angeles?" Francisca asked
"Yes we are" Luna said
"Thank you for coming. Im Francisca the Pipulp" Francisca said
"Hello there. I am Luna, to my right is my brother Leo, to Leo's right is the former Waterfront Gym leader, Alex, to his right is Serenity Bell, to her right is Opal, to her right is Jason, and to his right is Francis's cousin Kristen, and finally to Kristen's right, is our pokemon" Luna said as each person said hi to Francisca the Pipulp
"Hello to you all" Francisca said
(Triple Spoiler Alert Ahead)
"Are you related to Francis the trainer?" Luna asked
"I am related to someone, but it is not Francis the trainer. I am related to Francis the Snivy" Francisca said
"Who is Francis the Snivy?" Luna asked
"Francis the Snivy is my brother" Francisca said
"Where is your brother?" Leo asks
"He happens to be captured by Serperior" Francisca said
"Wait up, Are you saying that Francis is going to turn into a pokemon?" Leo asks
"That is correct, but he saves someone by the name of Luna from turning into a pokemon" Francisca said
"Luna, as in myself?" Luna asked
"Yes" Francisca said
"How does Francis turn into a pokemon?" Luna asks
"Well, there is a legend of the Ninetales. The curse said that if someone touches one of the nine tales, that person will be cursed, and turned into a pokemon for 1,000 years (In this series, its next year). There is only one way to take away the curse, but from what I know, no one found the way yet. Ninetales are very vengeful pokemon, who take their revenge, but Francis is so nice. Francis is so nice that Ninetales does not want to curse nice people, but he must follow the rules" Francisca said
"I see" Luna said
"Sometime in this adventure, Francis saves you from turning into a pokemon, and having your memories erased as well" Francisca said
"Wait up, so you are saying that Francis will have his memories erased?" Leo asks
"That part of the legend is the saddest part, especially for a nice boy like Francis. I wish it doesn't happen, but its part of the legend" Francisca said
"Francis should be my hero" Luna said
"Yes Luna, Francis is your hero. I know it's hard to see that Francis won't remember anything about being human, but you should always remember that he saved you from harm" Francisca said
"Is there any way to prevent this from happening?" Jason asks
"Just make sure that Ninetales does not attack Francis with the tails" Francisca said
"How are we going to save Francis from Serperior?" Luna asks
"Im going to explain that" Francisca said
"When?" Luna asked
"You shall hear it…TOMORROW on "Francis and Snivy's Adventure" Francisca said
"Aww.." Leo said as he puts his head down
