Blake's Moemon Adventure: Chronicles of Truth
Chapter 50
"Okay, so after much deliberation on the thought, we have decided to rule Athena slicing the ball in half as a foul." Hughes said into the microphone.
"Seriously?" Tara exclaimed, enfuriated.
"Furthermore, in light of the current players, no cutting the ball, smashing the ball, electrocuting the ball, setting the ball on fire, flying above the heads of the other players, or bludgeoning anyone with the bat." Hughes continued.
"What about making the ball explode?" Tara asked.
"Obviously, that's out too." Hughes said, frowning.
"Okay, with that settled, Blake's team has one out." Hughes said, frowning. "Next up, Shana, the team captain, is up."
Shana stood on the plate, glaring at Willow, who glared right back at her.
"Take this!" Willow exclaimed, throwing the ball at full speed at Shana. Shana hit the ball, knocking it into the air.
"I've got it!" Nancy said, running towards the ball. Shana also started running, though not towards the base. She was on a full blown sprint at Nancy. She held the bat as one would a sword, and Nancy ducked in fear. Shana hit the ball square on a second time, sending it soaring past Nancy's head and into the wall. The ball then fell out of the small indent it made in the wall, and landed on the ground. Shana turned and walked to first base.
"Foul." Hughes said, frowning. "Even if you have the physical speed to do so, you can't hit the ball twice. Shana, you're out."
"Damn." Shana said, frowning, turning and walking to the bleachers.
"Well, what's the matter?" Tara asked, shrugging. "They haven't tagged us or caught the ball yet, I'd say we're doing good."
"Athena and Shana both broke the rules, so that's two outs." Blake explained. "One more, and they're up at bat."
"…" Tara said, her mouth open in shock, her eyes wide.
"What's with that 'I don't believe it' face?" Blake asked, frowning.
"Never mind." Tara shrugged. "Anyways, we just have to not get another out, right? Who's up next?"
"According to the roster, I am!" Mini said, excitedly. "I can't wait!" Mini picked up the bat and smiled, walking to the home plate.
"…We're doomed…" Tara said, face palming.
"Well now, without being able to score any runs at all, it looks like Shana's team moves out to the outfield." Hughes said, smiling. "And first up for the extras, we have Nancy!"
"Wait, Nancy, before you go out, I have an idea." Willow said, smiling evilly.
Nancy stepped onto the field, blushing, her hair tied back in a sporty ponytail. Blake, the pitcher, was flustered.
"Um, Blake, don't go easy on me!" Nancy said, blushing.
"R-Right." Blake said, his cheeks pink. He held his arm back, and focused on the throw he'd been practicing his whole life. He threw it at Nancy head on, Nancy swinging her back half heartedly, her eyes shut in fear.
Like a miracle, the bat connected with the ball, though with the minimal force put into it, the ball landed out of bounds.
"Strike One." Hughes said, frowning.
"Man, I wish I didn't have to do this…" Nancy said, looking down glumly. "Where's Rose? Why couldn't she play for me?"
"…" Dr. Jones followed Rosasharn as she led him down the beach.
"What did you want to talk to me about?" Dr. Jones asked, frowning.
"Not me." Rose said, frowning. "My dad wants to talk to you."
"…I see." Dr. Jones said, frowning. Rose led him to a clearing, where a man in his thirties or forties sat on a rock, staring out over the sea, frowning. He wore raggedy tanned jeans, and a black shirt. He had spiky brown hair that was wild and unkempt. He had cold brown eyes, and turned to Dr. Jones, frowning.
"You knew all along it was me, didn't you?" He asked, frowning.
"Yeah, well, you probably could have named your daughter a little better." Dr. Jones said, frowning. "I've read that book too."
"Rose of Sharon…" The man said, standing up, laughing. "What a name…"
The man walked over to Dr. Jones, and punched him across the face, knocking him into the sand.
"That was for abandoning your family." The man said, glaring down at him.
"Oh, come now…" Dr. Jones said, standing up, rubbing his mouth with the back of his hand. "Is that how we greet old friends?"
"You're a coward." The man said, staring down at Dr. Jones. "A man like you, who would desert your wife and daughter deserves a hell of a lot more than a single punch."
"It all has a purpose." Dr. Jones said, frowning. "As long as I complete Genesis, then it won't matter."
"Do you think that by dedicating yourself to this, you'll make a difference?" The man exclaimed. "You're pathetic! Chasing after some hopeless dream like Genesis, it's pathetic! Is this really the true face of the strongest trainer? A weak, helpless fool who can't even protect his family?"
"Everything I do is for my family." Dr. Jones said, glaring at the man. "Never… Tell me I don't care about them."
"If you really cared…" The man said, frowning. "Then you wouldn't have left."
"Whatever I can do to protect my daughter, I will do." Dr. Jones said, frowning. "Just you wait."
"Dad…" Rose said, staring at her father.
"Just wait." Dr. Jones said, holding up and old antique gold watch. "After all, time is normally constant… However, at some point, time will begin to wind back, and the clock turns backwards… Yes… Time will tell all tales, and rewind to that point… Rewind twenty years…"
So, what could Dr. Jones mean by that? He means that no longer will this story be updated. Instead, Aurore's Moemon Adventure will receive daily updates until completion, at which point the clock will start winding forwards again. See you at Aurore's story, for those who read it.
