Chapter 9 (IX)- Duplica's Insight Sight

Daisy turned around as soon as she felt a powerful glow emerging from the inner centre of the jungle. She
stopped tending to the pool and then dropped her bacteria gathering pole into the water. Green substance
fell along with the pole back into the water.
Something felt wrong, she knew it. She may be the most immature at times and even stupid but she knew
when she sensed something powerful, very very powerful enough for humans to detect.
She wiped her hands on her jean overalls and ran outiside of the podium. She sprinted out of the back
double doors and came out in the gardens. She wasn' t the only one. All the sisters were already out
there or were just arriving. It seemed that Misty was the second one to arrive. Lily and Violet wern't far
behind.
"D..Did you a..all feel that?", Violet asked.
"I sure did, it came from the jungle!", Misty responded
"How do you know?", Daisy asked.
"Look at the pokemon. They're all turned in a attacking position towards the jungle!", Lily answered.
"What do you say?", Violet asked to no on in general.
"I say we go and see what the energy source is!", Misty said and already started running towards the
jungle.
"That girl just can't wait!", Violet muttered.
"Yeah, she just wants to get it o—", Lily started teasing
"Lily! Please, ever since you went to that sick joke website you're just going on and on with the senseless
phrases!", Daisy said
"What do you mean?", Lily said innocently.
"I mean what was with that joke with firemen and long hoses??", Violet asked disapprovingly.
"Well..."
"How about we just follow red hair there?", Daisy said and started sprinting into the jungle as well.
"Like, lets follow!"
"Like ok!"
The 'like' was back in their system again.

Misty ran a hand through her hair as she kept on sprinting along the jungle cutting a random path here
and there.
It had been a long time since the jungle had ever been used to reach the Steam house. These days, the
jungle was there solely for the purpose of making a habitat for the few pokemon that are part of the water
circus, well now an official all round circus.
There were a few Butterfrees, Mankeys, two Heracrosses, some Rattatas and a few Pidgeottos.
As she slowed down to a walk to gasp for breath she spotted three pidgeottos lying twitching on the jungle floor. One of the birds' wing was burnt to a crisp and its beak broken from the face and lain away a meter
from the neck of the other pidgeotto.
One Heracross was sitting against the door of the steam house with its entire horn broken off. Its stomach
was open with thick yellow bile flowing out from it. Suprisingly it was still alive, but in agony and
horrible suffering.
Misty watched as the Heracross reached for her with its only arm towards her. MIsty was scared.
Who wouldn't be?
Misty stepped back and then clutched her hand upon her left breast. It showed that she was hurt internally
in her heart. She saw the pain in the Heracross's eyes.
She saw the oain in its eyes, and it saw the pain in her eyes.
Misty swallowed her fear and then started towards the Heracross. She bent down and took the Heracross's
hand in her own and clutched it tight.

"What the..?", Misty exclaimed as she suddenly realized that she was inside the steam house from the old
musty smell of it.
"YYOoUu HhaAVvEe CcOoMmEe, YyOoUu AaRrEe TtHhEe CcHhOoSsEeNn. WwEe HhAaVvEe
SsPpOoKkEeNn", Duplica's flashing powerful eyes drained away from her and the puplils returned to
their original colour of green.
Her robes of white crystal metamorphed back into her original clothes and then she stood there holding
the one azure crystal ball in her two palms.
Misty stared at her.
"Um..Hi Misty, I guess you know that you are the chosen right?", Duplica said.
"What?", Misty was still astounded
A sudden wave rocked the entire place and then a wave of invisible energy pulsated around Misty and
Duplica. Then white power rays swirled around and flew out the doors and windows into the outside
world.
There was a great power drone and then silence.
"What the hell just happened?", Misty asked very confused
"I'm sorry, it was necessary!"
"What, to kill innocent pokemon in the jungle..?"
"Relax, all the pokemon in the jungle are fine, they only experience a moment of temperal time stability
flux. I.e meaning that none of them were effected in anyway. The Pidgeottos and the mutilated Hercross
were actually all simulations that were put there for a purpose!", Duplica said.
"What.. How...Why?", Misty asked
"I will answer in sequence. What... well as I already explained they were only experience a moment of temperal time stability flux. I.e meaning that none of them were effected in anywa—"
"I Know, I know.."
"How, well that is question even I am not fully inderstandable in. It has all to do with the Past Orbs."
"What the hoo..?"
"Why? Well it was a test for you.!"
"What do you mean, I wasn't the only one who came. My sisters were right behind me so why was I
tested?"
"They do not remember anything now!"
"How come?"
"Ah, now that is a long story.. how about we go to my quarters?"
"Quarters?"
"My room!"
"I knew that!"
"Past Orb Power, power of the light in the air of nature. Bring upon the power of Abra... TELEPORT!!!"

* * *

Daisy sat there at the pool staring at her pole, the pole sunk deep in the water.
"What? Like how did that go all the way down there?", she bent down and stared at the water.
She sighed and took out her pokeball and threw it in the water.
"Vaporeaon GO! Can you please like go and retrieve my pole sweetie?"
"Vap!"
"Good boy!"
Daisy sniffed her sleeve.
"Strange, I smell like a junglem I like wonder why!", Daisy whispered.
"Oh, Thank you Vaporeaon! Wanna help me clean up here?"
"Vaporrr!"

* * *

A flash blinded Duplica's room as Misty and Duplica popped into the room right on Duplica's bed.
Ditto and Mini_dit were just bored and were plauing a game of chess as the two girls popped in.
"Hello, Ditto, MiniDit!"
"Dittooo!", Ditto said with boredom
"Dit, Dit, oo", MiniDit yawned
."I take it you have done this type of stuff often for your pokemon to not notice anything strange?"
Duplica smiled and then giggled.
"MIsty, you are so right, now sit back down and don't be itching to send your pokemon at me!"
"How'd you know that?"
"I have a power inside of me, Misty, if you want to know the entire truth, sit...Good...and listen!"

It started a year and seven months ago, when the museum was about to be put in Celadon City.
Mr. Rohisho Simiuni was in charge of setting up the exhibition on the artifacts he retrieved from the
Ghost town of Graniyo in the farthest corners of the Johto region.
Mr. Simiuni came into town with a three truck loads of artifacts from the dug-out.
The news was all over the news, so naturally I went there from my wanderings to go and take a look at the
exhibits. I took along Mini-Dit and Ditto both along.
I was crossing the newly constructed bridge of Slowking when suddenly this wild red pokemon rushes at
me from the water and then growls at me and in the flicker of an eye disappears.
I had only got a glimpse of it but I think it had a mane of the shape of a cut of maroon star. It had metal
rings around its legs. I was amazed at the grace of it for a second and then since it looked so excotic and
rare I decided to risk a pokeball. I had recently won ten Ultra pokeballs from the music station in Goldenrod.
It somehow dodged all the ten ultra balls I threw at at it and then it roared in a huge voice that shook the earth.
I had closed my earss instinctly and when I opened them a second later, it was gone and only the leaves were
falling from the trees.
It was incredible...but back to the story
How did I come so quickly to Celadon from Goldenrod?
Well, I asked someone to show me their flying type pokemon and this little girl showed me her Pidgeotto,
and I gladly accepted. I mean I made Ditto transform into it and then fly me to Celadon.
Anyhow, when we arrived in Celadon, I made a visit to the Poke-MartLex and overheard that the museum was
under heavy guard. And that there was a rumor that TEam Rocket was going to try and steal the main display.
No-one knew what the main display was but they knew that it was something very significant in the history of
archeology of pokemon artifacts.
I was not concerned about this and so I ignored the rumors about Team Rocket and wore my golden Raichu
medallion.
Why?
Well, I heard that Dr. Rohisho was looking for a young assistant to help him with his studies and esperiments.
I was pretty much lost in my personality before I came upon hearing about this. I have had this little spark of
digging up stuff in my blood since the beginning of my miaginings. And I guess I felt I had to try and get this
job. I just HAD to.
So, anyway the big night arrived and we all stood in line waiting to go into the museum. I was lucky enough to
get the 34th spot in the line. Not a long spot considereing that there were about 1400 people all waiting to go into
the museum.
Soon enough my turn came to go into the museum to get a tour.
We all went around looking at the most amazing artifacts.
There were some black and red pokeballs on display. This showed that the custon red and white pokeball is not the
original design.
They also had medallions that had on crude drawings of rare pokemon such as Pikachus, Misdreavus, Ditto, Shuckle,
Gligar, and Jynx'.
It was all so amazing.
Then the tour ended. I stayed behind to try and talk to Mr. Rohisho who had just sneaked into his lab behind the red lines.
I tried to go under the red bands when I fel t a heavy hand over my shoulder.
"WHatch' think you're a doing girl?", a huge muscular guy with a cute face stared at me.
I told him that I wanted to meet with Dr. Rohisho and discuss the position of an assistant.
"Nah, theah, Ducktoar Rowhishu ain't meetin' withth any-on now. Wihth Teem Rocket an' all, us'n guards can't afford to
let any-on go anyware un'il the displays ovah!"
I still thought he was cute when he told me off, rude, but cute.
His chin was that of a movie star, y'know like in the movie, THE TIME CAPSULE, and then his but—"
"AHEM...", MIsty interjected.
"Oh, yeah back to the ecounter.
I was about to sadly go out from there when Dr. Rohisho comes screaming out of the lab saying that some freaks
wearing black clothes with a red R in the middle of their shirts."
"Team ROCKET??", Misty interupted.
"No, the Powerpuff girls ! Of course Team Rocket!"
"I was just asking!"
"Shush, anyway, I decided to go and take on Team Rocket!"
"Why?"
"Why do any of us little people go up against gangstes under a big crimelord?"
"..."
"Exactly, so I went there and threw out Ditto. Ditto looked and transformed into the opponent's Sneasel. I also sent out Mini-Dit and it transformed into the
other opponent's Muk. We battled, exchanging rude remarks yes, but fighting nevertheless. Eventually we beat them, no suprise there, and they cursed at me
and sought to take off but one of them snatched my pendant. I screamed and then suddenly Ditto evolved.... no I'm lying. I just made Ditto-Sneasal attack
them and took my pendant back. After "team rocket ran away..again" I was congratulating my Dittos when Dr. Rohisho approached me and asked me this..
"Ahem, youn Lady that was some excellent acting skills!"
"Um..thank you Dr. Rohisho!"
"Huh? Heh Heh, well you do know my name. Not many people remember it. THey only remember me as the guy who dicovered the artifacts."
"Well, sir, I like archeology a lot and I follow your work closely!"
"Do you? Then tell me this. When was the town of Pallet founded?"
"Well, the town of Pallet was not connected with the real world until the city of Cerulean was founded in 32312 Alpha cyber kinects!"
"Very Good! Another one. When was Gastly first discovered fossilized?"
"Never, only Haunters and Gengars were dicovered fossilized on route 34 by you!"
"VERY VERY GOOD! Say, how would you like to be my assistan?"
"WOW, I mean sure!"
ANd that is how I became his assistant."
"Um..Duplica, you told me all of this but HOW IN HELL's Name DID YOU GET THOSE POKEMON POWERS?"
"I can't tell you that now!"
"Why not?"
"End of Chapter! DUH!", Duplica said to no one in particular
"Why are you talking to yourself?"
"I made it my habit!"
