Chapter 28 Hole
Where was I?
I was in a hole.
What kind of a hole?
A protected hole.
Protected by what?
A pair of viscious, unyielding Beedrill.
Heh, now that *that's* out of the way...
Okay, sure. It *could* have been worse.
But tell that to the countless aching spots where I'd been stung for merely asking a few questions...And I guess the few insults that I threw didn't exactly *help* matters...
But I couldn't stop myself from doing so...I mean come on, if *you* were in my situation, wouldn't you be angry?
I suppose it wasn't the best choice I could make when I chose to lash out at them after they did their Twin Needle attack for the third time...
That's when they brought in the Murkrow.
Needless to say, I didn't resist my capture much more.
I merely hovered in mid-air and glared at my guards...
They were not amused.
Why can't we all live in harmony? I demanded after a few seconds during which my hard gaze didn't cause them to even flinch.
No answer.
I won't lie to you; that's when I started singing.
What song?
A Disney song. Perhaps you've seen "The Little Mermaid"?
Yep. That one with all the fish and the crab-guy talking about booming or something. I didn't know all the verses, but I knew the "In harmony..." part.
Unable to help themself, the Beedrill started humming along.
This time it was the Murkrow that were ticked off.
They tried a few mild attacks on me and the Bug- and Poison-types, but none of them worked.
The two bees and I made up quite a singing group. Sure, *you* might not have been impressed by a chorus made up of "Mew mew, mew mew" and "Bee bee, beedrill" but *I* thought it was rather nice.
Then one of the Murkrow left momentarily, this time bringing back a large and threatening-looking green, red, and yellow Pidgeot. *I* thought it resembled an overgrown parrot. ('How do I know about parrots?' you may wonder. All I can say is that my life hasn't been lived in just Rainbowmon and Pokémon territory. I've been to the United States a few times, as well as a few other places. But *their* cats reminded me more of a Snorlax than a Persian.)
Bringing in the Normal- and Flying-type was a Big mistake.
Pidgeot instantly recognized the song and started tweeting a harmony.
"Krow!" one of the Murkrow shouted in frustration. The other left and brought back a black Pterdact that looked very angry.
"DACT!" it commanded.
"Mew-" "Bee-" "Pidge-" we all stopped simultaneously.
After a moment of sheepish embarrassment, the Pidgeot and the two Beedrill started spewing something about me controlling their minds and forcing them to sing. I threw them an annoyed and disappointed look. I would do no such thing!
Not that it was a bad idea, but I just didn't *think* of it in time...
[I don't want to hear your pitiful excuses!] the Pterdact snarled. [You've been sharing camaraderie with the enemy! You ought to be ashamed of yourselves, you pathetic excuses for avians.]
They muttered something, their eyes averted to the ground. After a few seconds more to get them thoroughly scared, the Pterdact spoke, looking at me with a frightening glint in his eye.
[You. Come with me.]
Giving an inward gulp, and throwing a last glare over at the traitorous singers, I complied.
We flew out of the hole, and I was only too happy to see it go. I was brought to a dismal-looking field, on which many disgruntled Rainbowmon were gathered, all pro-avian of course.
A Gligar hissed, [Evil! You're evil! Go back to where you came from! We don't want the likes of you here!]
I pointedly ignored the batty-looking Rainbowmon. My jailer spoke. [How about we have this *Pokémon*-] -the last was spat- [-fight Theo, and *then* we shall grant him an audience...*If* he survives.]
Surely a Rainbowmon that was named Theo couldn't be *too* bad.
But that's what I thought before the battle...
Before I caught my first glimpse of Theo.
