pbPart One- Utter Lunacy/b
p
p"What the hell?!" that would be the Boss, Giovanii, in the other room. What he was screaming about is anyone's guess.
p"MYRRRRRRUUUUUUU!" Roared a rather purturbed and noisey voice. Sounded like a pokemon, to me.
p"MUAHAHA! It's MINE! All MINE!" Oh, i knew that one. That would be my sister, my twin, Soshika. She was obviously acting like a lunatic again. I teleported to the boss's office to see what they were up to.
pYou know, i never would have thought a myuu-hitokage mix to be capable of causeing much damage to a flame-proof office, or for that matter my Normal class sister doing much damage to ANYTHING...but the office was a wreck. Looked like someone had parked the SS Anne in there. I mean, things were a mess. The boss's books were on the floor, most of them ablaze at this point. The furniture floated against the ceiling and a chair seemed to bump franticly against the window with a mind of its own, like it wanted to get out. I didn't blame it. Soshika was running around the room with a small black computer-type box in her hands, otherwise known as an unactivated TM. the Hitomyuu was chasing her, spurting fire from her hands every now and again that always missed my sister, but inevitably hit something else. And that which couldnt' be burned, such as the flame-proof rug or curtains were promptly shreaded by my sister running amok with her claws. Again.
p"WAHAHAHA! You can't catch me, you little fire bug!" Soshika ran up the bookshelf, which quickly began to totter under her unbalanced weight. "Uh-oh," muttered my less then for-thinking sibling, leaping off the shelf to catch onto the ceiling fan. the shelf tumbled down, landing on Hitomyuu. It took less then a second for all the books in the shelf to burn to cinders. Even less for the angry little psy-fire pokemon to bash right through the tough wood and glare at my sister. Hitomyuu had been stripped of levetation.
pThe boss just stood in the doorway with an open mouth. Hmmm that was interesting. the last time he'd gotten this look was when Hellcat -my sister's fire evolution- had gotten loose and burned his office up very nicely. Hence the fire precautions. I think he most likely would have said something, but the constant damage was shocking him into submission. I levetated next to him with my arms crossed, watching my sister spin around on the fan.
pNow, my sister and i are lab experiments from a long while back. I myself am a human/myuu/meowth mix-up that came out looking like a more preportioned blue Myuutu with a double-split tail. My sister is human/eevee/meowth, but since we were born on the same day from the same tank, we're considered twins. Besides, it was the same meowth and same human in us. We joined Team Rocket a few months ago, after they saved our hides in a showdown with Myuutu. We're calling that fight a draw, because we all got away. Anyhoo. One of the Team Rocket scientists, Breeder Girl, has been checking our DNA ever since. That's where she got the Hitomyuu.
pMy sister is a true weirdo. she has long pointy ears and a long tail, and claws. Basicly she looks like a yellow meowth that got mixed up with a human girl in a blender. Some people i guess found that attractive...some people being ghosts. You don't even want to know about that.
pSo, my sister and i were dressed in the newer version of the Team Rocket uniforms. That is to say, the white ones with the big red Rs and the black boots. Soshika, of course, had black gloves with holes cut for her claws. That was to keep from picking up any element stones. When she did that, she evolved. That was what the eevee in her did. Me, i was just way smarter then her. For one thing, i never fell on my arse.
pCRRRRRRRACK! the fan blade snapped and Soshika fell to the floor with the Anakin Skywalker like "Oops!" that she used a lot. Hitomyuu jumped on her stomach and snatched the TM in both hands, and started to run. My sister, though, was not about to give up the fight.
p"MINE!" Soshika snarled and swung the Hitomyuu and TM around, hoping to fling the little pokemon off. Hitomyuu stayed hooked on.
p"MYRRUUUN!!" it roared, trying to speak in a language we could understand. Being Psy, i could read its thoughts. Basicly, it said the same thing my sister did.
pThe match for the TM went on like that for a few hours. I eventually leaned against the door to watch. The boss remained paralyzed. Eventually someone would intervein to end this, but in the meantime i was being well entertained. A small smile tugged at my face.
pSomeone interveined alright. All too soon.
p"Charmew!" Breeder Girl, while she was small, was most certainly just as violent as any of her creations. She stormed into the boss's room, bypassing me and Giovanii to glare at her little creation. the Hitomyuu dropped the TM and looked pleading, my sister just secreted the device away inside her amply large cargo pockets. Soshika sure made wierd modifications to her uniform. Yeesh.
pHitomyuu held its little red paws together behind its back and made its eyes water, even as its tail set fire to another book. I snickered. Breeder Girl just folded her arms.
p"Charmew, go back to the lab. Who let you out anyway? And Soshika, you're supposed to be resting. Same goes for you, Mantis." She looked at me and i winced. Damn this medical stuff anyway. "I ran enough tests on you today to make you both weak as baby Eevees. What are you doing up?"
pSoshika, who was now sitting on a corner of what USED to be the boss's desk kicked her feet against the splintered wood. "A pokeperson can only take so much of ping-pong, BG! If i didn't get out of there, i'd go mad, i tell you! MAD!! MAAAAAAD!! WAHAHA!" she grinned perfectly normally. This was her idea of humor, probobly gleaned off of Stryker or Blackskunk or Raizap...someone. Or maybe it was just her. Like the time she renamed all her pokemon "Self."
pBreeder Girl didn't buy it. She snapped her fingers and pointed towards the door. "Out! I want to see you both in the rec room in fifteen minutes or i'll send YOU to Dr. Oak's lab!" She pointed to Soshika. I laughed, but she turned on me. "And YOU i'll pump so full of anasthetic you'll be out for three days!"
pI scowled. She wasn't kidding, she'd done it several times. Most often to one of the guys when they were getting too friendly with some reluctant girl. It was funny to watch, but not so funny if she did it to YOU. I nodded my head and turned, giving the still staring boss a pat on the back.
p"You'll recover, boss," i told him and left. Soshika followed me.
p
pbPart Two- More Lunacy, revolving around ping-pong balls and TMs
p/b
p"So, what was the TM, Sosh?" i looked up from the magazine i was reading and regarded Soshika, who was playing ping-pong with an extremely adept Lickitung that used its tongue as a paddle. only problem was the ball got slightly sticky. Ugh.
pMy sister grinned and missed another of the Lickitung's serves. It was winning by a long shot. "HA! You won't belive it! It was sooo mega kick-arse! Guess!"
pMy magazine was pretty interesting. it had an article on the caves of Cerulean city, which they were checking out. When we'd fought Myuutu, a lot of fallout had come from our last attack. Some of it had aparently been swept up north to Cerulean. They had been finding weird stuff in the caves. "Hmmm..." i muttered, not really caring. "Let me guess...dream eater."
pSoshika blinked, a pingpong ball bouncing off the side of her head. "How'd you know?"
pWell DUH let's see here...i was a psy pokeperson after all. i could read her mind. "Lucky guess."
p"Oh," said my ever gullible sib and turned back to her pingpong game. A ball imidiately struck her on teh nose. She scowled at the Lickitung and threw her paddle at it. "OOOW!! You ugly bugger!!"
pI smiled, slightly. the Lickitung took the paddle between the eyes and fell down, dazed. Soshika threw the pingpong ball across the table, and it bounced and stuck to Lickitung's tongue. "One million points for me," Soshika decided aloud. "I win. You LOOSE." She grinned and did a little exagerated pointing towards the dazed Lickitung.
pI snickered. Same old sibling, right from the day i hit her on the back of the head in the fighting ring. She probobly had only matured a little bit since then. i knew she'd only grown about four levels.
p"I'm going down to the kitchen," She announced, stepping over the pokemon. "Want anything?"
p"Aw, cheeze and rice. Why not?" i tossed my magazine over my shoulder and followed her out. We trotted towards the caffeteria, and spotted a few people we knew on the way. Some of the GYM leaders had even come by for a visit. Maybe something big was going down.
p
pbPart Three- As Paul the Samurai said..."It begins already.."
p/b
pI had my back turned when Soshika tackled Raizap, unprovoked. I'd been pouring some orange juice into some coffee, because i liked the taste and i wasn't so hungry at any rate. The microwave was unusable, after a few prehistoric pokemon being put in there, so i had to use the stove. Soshika's Charmander, who was -as usual- walking around without any pokeball or attention was in the kitchen too, so he lit the burner. I wasn't such a fire person myself. I stuck to what a i knew, which was Psy pokemon. My team had a Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Hypno, Abra and Gastly on it. I was STILL missing the Huanter i had been meaning to get. That had been when my twin and i had gone to Lavender town to rescue this very Charmander from being burried alive. That was also where we met Soshika's Ghost-boyfriend, Josh. I don't much like him, way too dark. Even a little evil. But most definitly he was DEAD. That was the creepy part. And everyone around Team Rocket seemed very quiet about that...
pBut Raizap hit the floor suddenly, and without even thinking thundershocked the entire room. Even i got a little singed, but i had the trick down pat of putting my tail to the floor as an extra ground. But Soshika fell back, zapped pretty nicely, and hit the floor. Raizap brained her with a ketchup bottle, but since it was the plastic squeezy kind it didn't do any damage. Soshika grabbed the ketchup and spontaniously started to fight with the giant Raichu in much the same fashion she'd attacked Hitomyuu.
p"RAAAAAAAGH!! Ketchup!! WAHAHAH!" Soshika gripped the ketchup tightly and dug her heels into the ground, tuggin hard. Raizap tugged harder.
p"RAI RAI RAI RAI!! ZAP!! RAIRARAIIII!!" The Raichu was stuttering, a bad sign. I for once wished i had multipul tails like a Vulpix so i could ground them ALL. When Raizap stuttered, she had charged up MASSIVE amounts of electricity.
pI could see it even now, zipping across her face, and even from her tail to her ears. Soshika didn't notice and growled, digging her claws deep into the ketchup bottle's plastic. "RRRARG!!"
pRaizap let loose a Thunderbolt that filled the room with glowing blue light. Unlike most people think, electricity isn't yellow when it strikes nearby. It's blue, and it smells like every electrical socket everywhere just sparked at once. I winced as it hit me, and the coffe machine exploded. Hitokage, the Charmander, just fainted straight out. The microwave "dinged" and turned on, for no apparent reason and the refrigorator bulb blew out. In fact, all the lights blew. It seemed to start a domino effect that ran down the hallways, blacking out the entire complex. Stryker came running in through one door, Blackskunk and Hawk through the other.
p"What's going on-" Stryker started.
p"Is there any fire? Huh? Explosions maybe?" Hawk was looking totally insane, as usual.
p"Is there trouble? I brought the M4!" Blackskunk was already aiming with this be-utiful custom gun thing. I didn't quite know much about guns, but i knew this thing was very pretty looking. i also knew it was very dangerous, especially in the army-finatic's hands. It was "The" M4 rather then "a" M4 because, simply, there WAS no other M4 on the base to match this. Even new recruits knew that.
pSince it was totally dark, and besides me and Soshika no one else had the quasi-Meowth night vision, i decided to help the guys out a bit. I glowed, just slightly, and they were able to place the sounds of fighting to two people.
pSoshika and Raizap were both still standing, still fighting over the ketchup bottle and Raizap was still shocking my twin, who didn't seem to notice at all. Soshika just growled furiously and tugged at the ketchup. I didn't know why, she barely even LIKED ketchup...
p"Hey, that's enough!" Stryker tried to pull Raizap and Soshika apart, but just got shocked. He yelped and hopped backwards, shaking his painfully numb hand. "Mantis, what happened here?"
pI shrugged. "You got me. Soshika just attacked Raizap for no reason. or maybet he ketchup was the reason, but i don't know."
p"They're obviously both rabid," Skunk said, taking aim. "I'll shoot them in the legs, then we'll be able to examine them."
p"No wait! I got a better idea!"
pHawk looked happy. "Can we nuke the whole room?"
pI raised an eyebrow. "Cheeze and rice, man. get a CAT scan...No, someone get someone with tranqs in here. We can tranq em out."
p"Someone get someone...pretty vauge, eh?" Stryker laughed but turned on his heels and RAN. whatever was going on it sure was disturbing. Something was definitly wrong with my twin. If i didn't know any better, i'd say she was turning into Hellcat, but Hellcat was at least more coherent. And Hellcat's tail and hair was fire. That was also another give-away.
pBlackskunk kept Raizap and Soshika covered with his M4 the whole time, but i didn't see why. Soshika certainly wasn't attacking US.
pStryker returned with not just one someone, but three somones. Breeder Girl, Daemon Wyrm and Soshika's Guild leader, aBulbasaur. aBulbasaur wasn't a real bulbasaur, but for some really bizzare reason, he could turn into one. Maybe he had Ditto spliced into his blood. I didnt' know.
p"We got a slight situation here," i told them.
paBulbasaur shook his head. "What the heck happened to her? She sure isn't acting like a Ninja."
p"Obviously not. She's acting totally nuts. Daemon, you had a Myuu for a while. What can you tell me?" I wa curious as to this whole thing too.
pDaemon obviously had no more idea then the rest of us. "Mew never did anything like this. I mean, unprovoked fighting. Has anyone tried to stop these two?"
pRaizap was biting Soshika, who was kicking back. Stryker snickered slightly. "It's not as simple as it might look."
pHawk and Skunk exchanged looks. I knew they'd both been lectured and beaten up on by Deamon plenty of times. "You're welcome to try."
pDaemon gave them a look that labled them incompetant and strided towards the two fighters. Grabbing both their tails, he pulled, but only got shocked and scratched up badly as a result. We laughed.
pI grinned. "Heh."
pAs Daemon fell backwards, maybe unconcius maybe just badly shocked into paralysis, Breeder Girl reached a hand inside her lab coat and pulled out a teensy shot-gun type thing. "You were right, they do look as if they need some tranqulizing. At least Soshika does. aBulba, can you hold Raizap down while we get Soshika out of here? Obviously she'll be a little upset." Breeder Girl loaded a tranq dart into the little gun and fired it once.
pTerrified of needles as she was, Soshika threw a fit. She jerked backwards, tearing the ketchup bottle in half and spraying the better part of the kitchen in the red gook. Raizap, distracted by the sudden presence of ketchup turned and started licking it off the walls. Skunk turned and took aim at my twin again, who was staggering around covered in ketchup and just a liiiiiitle off kilter from the tranq.
p"I'm bleeding i'm bleeeeeeeeding! OOOhoho NOOO!!" Soshika gripped the sides of her head and fell down to her knees, howling. "BLEEEDING!! WAHAHA!!" Tears started streaking down her eyes, and Skunk lowered his M4. Aparently she wasn't much of a threat going under the tranq.
pStryker turned to Hawk. "We need the doctor up here...tell him to bring a Chansey. aBulba, see if you can get Daemon out of here before Raizap starts trying to eat him?" aBulba nodded, morphed gracefully into a Bulbasaur and wrapped his vine around Deamon's ankles. The Bulbasaur began to drag Daemon from the room, none too gently bumping his head against the doorframe in the process. The rest of us just looked at Breeder Girl.
pShe put the tranq gun back in her labcoat and pointed to me and Stryker. "Get her under control and take her to my lab. I'll run ahead and get the place ready for Ketchup Queen here. Blackskunk, can you go back and tell the doc to meet us there?"
pSkunk stiffened. "I only take orders from ME!"
pBreeder Girl sighed and assumed a pleeding tone. "Would you PLEASE go tell the doctor to meet us in my lab? Please?"
pSkunk grinned and turned to go. "Since you asked so nicely."
pI shook my head. This place was filled with lunatics. a whole LOT of lunatics.
pStryker and i flanked Soshika, who by now as just sobbing softly that she was bleeding. Stryker looked at the "blood," then to me and told my twin; "It's only ketchup."
p"I'm bleeeeding, i'm...huh?"
p"Ketchup. 'Chu food. Tomatoe paste. Got it? Up. Let's go." I hauled my sister halfway to her feet, Stryker got her other side.
pHe frowned, the ketchup smearing on both our uniforms. "How come i always wind up with bizzare jobs?"
pI grinned evilly. "Hey, you joined. We just came along for the joyride. Now you're stuck with all us lunatics."
p"You read the Wraith Squadron books?"
p"Very similar, huh?"
p"Very."
pThere was a brief silence as we walked my sibling who was only semi-concious down the hall.
pI broke it. "It sucks that Phanon died."
pStryker laughed at that. Phanon was one of the characters in those books. "Yeah, he was cool."

p"What the hell?!" that would be the Boss, Giovanii, in the other room. What he was screaming about is anyone's guess.

p"No wait! I got a better idea!"
pHawk looked happy. "Can we nuke the whole room?"
pI raised an eyebrow. "Cheeze and rice, man. get a CAT scan...No, someone get someone with tranqs in here. We can tranq em out."
p"Someone get someone...pretty vauge, eh?" Stryker laughed but turned on his heels and RAN. whatever was going on it sure was disturbing. Something was definitly wrong with my twin. If i didn't know any better, i'd say she was turning into Hellcat, but Hellcat was at least more coherent. And Hellcat's tail and hair was fire. That was also another give-away.
pBlackskunk kept Raizap and Soshika covered with his M4 the whole time, but i didn't see why. Soshika certainly wasn't attacking US.
pStryker returned with not just one someone, but three somones. Breeder Girl, Daemon Wyrm and Soshika's Guild leader, aBulbasaur. aBulbasaur wasn't a real bulbasaur, but for some really bizzare reason, he could turn into one. Maybe he had Ditto spliced into his blood. I didnt' know.
p"We got a slight situation here," i told them.
paBulbasaur shook his head. "What the heck happened to her? She sure isn't acting like a Ninja."
p"Obviously not. She's acting totally nuts. Daemon, you had a Myuu for a while. What can you tell me?" I wa curious as to this whole thing too.
pDaemon obviously had no more idea then the rest of us. "Mew never did anything like this. I mean, unprovoked fighting. Has anyone tried to stop these two?"
pRaizap was biting Soshika, who was kicking back. Stryker snickered slightly. "It's not as simple as it might look."
pHawk and Skunk exchanged looks. I knew they'd both been lectured and beaten up on by Deamon plenty of times. "You're welcome to try."
pDaemon gave them a look that labled them incompetant and strided towards the two fighters. Grabbing both their tails, he pulled, but only got shocked and scratched up badly as a result. We laughed.
pI grinned. "Heh."
pAs Daemon fell backwards, maybe unconcius maybe just badly shocked into paralysis, Breeder Girl reached a hand inside her lab coat and pulled out a teensy shot-gun type thing. "You were right, they do look as if they need some tranqulizing. At least Soshika does. aBulba, can you hold Raizap down while we get Soshika out of here? Obviously she'll be a little upset." Breeder Girl loaded a tranq dart into the little gun and fired it once.
pTerrified of needles as she was, Soshika threw a fit. She jerked backwards, tearing the ketchup bottle in half and spraying the better part of the kitchen in the red gook. Raizap, distracted by the sudden presence of ketchup turned and started licking it off the walls. Skunk turned and took aim at my twin again, who was staggering around covered in ketchup and just a liiiiiitle off kilter from the tranq.
p"I'm bleeding i'm bleeeeeeeeding! OOOhoho NOOO!!" Soshika gripped the sides of her head and fell down to her knees, howling. "BLEEEDING!! WAHAHA!!" Tears started streaking down her eyes, and Skunk lowered his M4. Aparently she wasn't much of a threat going under the tranq.
pStryker turned to Hawk. "We need the doctor up here...tell him to bring a Chansey. aBulba, see if you can get Daemon out of here before Raizap starts trying to eat him?" aBulba nodded, morphed gracefully into a Bulbasaur and wrapped his vine around Deamon's ankles. The Bulbasaur began to drag Daemon from the room, none too gently bumping his head against the doorframe in the process. The rest of us just looked at Breeder Girl.
pShe put the tranq gun back in her labcoat and pointed to me and Stryker. "Get her under control and take her to my lab. I'll run ahead and get the place ready for Ketchup Queen here. Blackskunk, can you go back and tell the doc to meet us there?"
pSkunk stiffened. "I only take orders from ME!"
pBreeder Girl sighed and assumed a pleeding tone. "Would you PLEASE go tell the doctor to meet us in my lab? Please?"
pSkunk grinned and turned to go. "Since you asked so nicely."
pI shook my head. This place was filled with lunatics. a whole LOT of lunatics.
pStryker and i flanked Soshika, who by now as just sobbing softly that she was bleeding. Stryker looked at the "blood," then to me and told my twin; "It's only ketchup."
p"I'm bleeeeding, i'm...huh?"
p"Ketchup. 'Chu food. Tomatoe paste. Got it? Up. Let's go." I hauled my sister halfway to her feet, Stryker got her other side.
pHe frowned, the ketchup smearing on both our uniforms. "How come i always wind up with bizzare jobs?"
pI grinned evilly. "Hey, you joined. We just came along for the joyride. Now you're stuck with all us lunatics."
p"You read the Wraith Squadron books?"
p"Very similar, huh?"
p"Very."
pThere was a brief silence as we walked my sibling who was only semi-concious down the hall.
pI broke it. "It sucks that Phanon died."
pStryker laughed at that. Phanon was one of the characters in those books. "Yeah, he was cool."
