Chapter 6:Cerulean Under Siege!
The next morning the exhausted group was making there way back down the path.
Kate yawned; "I could've done with a couple more hours of rest…" nobody else seemed to want to say anything. Paul was the only one who seemed truly awake and this may have only been due to the fact that he was munching an energy bar.
"I'm hungry!" Cara cried. "It's ok," Jill coaxed her. "I'm sure we'll find a lovely café in Cerulean."
An hour or so later they reached the city. But even at a glance they all knew something was terribly wrong. "Aren't cities sposed to have people?" Amanda remarked sarcastically. The confused group looked around. There was absolutely no one to be seen. "I don't like this," Bill said. Nobody else seemed too worried. "C'mon" Paul, now very energetic coaxed the rest of the group down. "Maybe the city is hosting some parade or somthin." Morgan pointed out.
Walking the streets didn't clear anything up. All the shops were closed. Windows were boarded and there was not a living thing to be seen. "This isn't right at all." Bill was genuinely worried by now. "Relax." Morgan said. "The logical thing to do would be to split up and look for an explanation." So they agreed.
Kate wanted to go alone, but Bill insisted that someone accompanied her. There were no volunteers so he decided to go himself. Jill demanded that Katie and Paul went with her, and Amanda also decided to tag along with them. Cara didn't want to go with anyone, especially Morgan, who always thought he knew best. Sure he was smart, but Cara didn't like feeling inferior, so she went alone.
Walking down a street, Cara heard voices coming from around a corner. "Finally a little help!" Cara thought. Then she felt someone forcefully grab her by the ear and yank her behind a garden wall. She turned around fists raised shouting, "Whets the big idea?" the last person she expected to see was Allie, a childhood friend who had moved to Cerulean 4 years ago.
"Quiet," Allie instructed in a loud whisper. "Do you want THEM to hear you?" "Who are THEY?" asked Cara. "Team Rocket." They took over Cerulean. They will KILL anyone they see out on the streets." "Well then shouldn't we get indoors or somthin…." Cara suddenly remembered. "MY FRIENDS I'VE GOTTA SAVE THEM" "Fine whatever. Dig your own grave." Allie rolled her eyes, knowing that it would be pointless to try and stop Cara.
Cara snuck around town until she came to a five-story building that she saw a Rocket Member enter. She waited a moment then carefully pushed open the tinted glass door. She found herself in a long hallway with an elevater at the end. She found herself in a damp basement with cells along the walls of another long hallway.
In the first cell, Jill and Morgan lay sleeping on the floor. In the next she saw Amanda and Katie who were also asleep and Paul who had his back to Cara. She could hear voices up ahead, around the corner. "All we've gotten out of the little blond one is that there are three more still out there." A womens voice replied, "If they are spotted have then destroyed immediately."
Horiffied Cara ran back to the elevator. "I've got to find Bill and Kate!" she exclaimed to herself.
