Chapter 4: A Man Named Bloody

Jessie tried to catch her breath, but it was impossible. Standing right in front of her was the man she saw rising the zombies! And if things weren't worse, there were two zombies standing right behind him!

She was breathing fast and hard, and she knew that this man was a killer.

He glared at her with evil red eyes.

Jessie tried to run, but it was impossible. "Pl...Please...." She breathed. "Don't...don't hurt me...I...I didn't see a thing! I swear it!"

"Lie..." He said.

She stared at him. "Wha...."

"That was a lie...." He then, surprisingly, smiled. He reached his hand toward her and Jessie closed her eyes and turned away, afraid he would choke her or kill her or something. When nothing happened, she looked up to see the man was offering his hand to help her up. Still unsure, she grabbed it and the man helped her to her feet. This is a perfect time to run! She thought. But, why am I still standing here?

"Who are you?" She asked him instead.

He smiled. "My name is Bloody..."

"Bloody? That's an awkward name! How can you be named..."

"Hmm, my clan here named me that. They are my family."

She forgot about the zombies. She turned and stared at the hideous dead looking creature. "That....that...thing is your...family...it's so ugly."

The zombie was obviously offended. It charged at Jessie as if to bite her. She screamed and fell down.

Bloody was offended as well. "I help you, and this is how you repay me?! Insult my only family!?"

"No..I'm...I'm really sorry, please..."

He snickered.

She then looked up at the mansion. "Wait a second, what are you doing? In there! You're killing people! You can go to jail for that!"

"Do you think the police would go as far as to put a powerful immortal being in a prison cell?" He laughed. "You obviously don't know who I am, do you?"

She stared at him. "Well...you're Bloody, that's your name..." She stood up. "And...I have to leave. I saw none of this, I don't know you, or any of this! I have amnesia! That's it, amnesia! I'll just be going now." She turned around and started to go off...

"HOLD IT!"

She froze with fear.

Bloody walked up to her. "I didn't say you could leave.."

She turned slowly around, and started breathing hard again.

He smiled. "The fun....has only just begun...."

((Meanwhile))

"JESSIE! COME IN JESSIE! JESSIE!!!!!!!!! ARE YOU THERE?"

"Obviously..." Meowth stared at James, who was sitting next to him. "SHE ISN'T THERE YOU STUPID BLUE-HAIRED BABOON!!!"

"Hey, names hurt Meowth.." He stared at the walky-talky. "Jessie...please...answer me..." He turned to Meowth and Mondo. "Something's wrong! I have to go and find out what!"

"James-San! Please! It'll be too dangerous!" Mondo yelled at him.

"Mondo.." He bowed. "I'm sorry, but I can't take your advice this time...I must go.."

"What?"

"Meowth, come with me!" He ran to get his coat. (It was winter at this time)

"What? Why do I have to go?"

"Because! I need backup!" He was putting his arm in the coat sleeve.

"No! I'm a cat! I refuse to go! I refuse! I can do what I want to! I'm not going!"

"You're a Pokemon, and you will obey your master!"

"You ain't my masta!"

"Oh, is that so?"

"It is so!"

"Then I have the tendancy to ring your scrawny little...." The phone then rang.

Mondo looked at the clock. "Who would be calling this late? It's 11:00 at night!"

James walked to the phone and picked it up. "H...He....Hello?"

"James?" It was Jessie...
