A/N: I moved this from the Misc./Game Crossovers section 'cause it wasn't getting enough reviews! Okay, R & R, ya'll!
Chapter 8- The Battle
"M-me?" Esther questioned. "Yeah, you!" Robin whispered angrily. "Um…okay!" Esther replied, putting on the small headset. "Good, now get out there and don't mess up!" Robin hissed, literally pushing her out of the tree. Esther landed on her feet, but it was obvious from the grimace on her face that the shock from landing on the balls of her feet really hurt. "Grrr…I'll show you, Robin. I'm sure to get promoted higher than you sooner or later; just you wait!" Esther hissed, shaking her fist at the tree. A second later she realized this could mess the whole thing up, so she turned to the trainer behind her. "Hey, I'm Allie Parker! Who are you?" The violet-haired girl asked, extending her hand. "I'm…uh…Nayru!" Esther said, shaking the trainer's hand. "Hey, Nayru! I was wondering if you'd like to battle me." Allie said, smiling. "Um…sure! How 'bout a six-on-six battle?" Esther asked, readying a pokéball. "Fine with me!" The other girl nodded, taking out a pokéball also. Robin watched them, flabbergasted. She's going to get her butt kicked! She thought as she radioed Esther. "Bryars, what do you think you're doing?!" "You'll see." Esther whispered into the mike, throwing her pokéball into the arena. "Pokéball, go!" She cried as it was released from her hand. The ball hit the ground and burst open with a shimmering red light. Once the light subsided, her Dragonair, Cyanea, appeared and let out a shrill call, "Dragon!!" Robin whistled quietly, remembering how valuable those things were. "A-all right," Allie stuttered, seeing the Dragonair. "Pokéball, go!" She threw the ball to the ground, unveiling a Wartortle. "War!" The turtle announced happily. "Cyanea, thunderbolt, now!" Esther yelled. Cyanea happily obeyed and fired an electric spark at the enemy. It connected with its underbelly, causing it to fall over. Esther had won the first round.
"Uggh…Wartortle, return!" Allie instructed, pressing the button on the ball. The water type disappeared into the ball. "Go, Rai!" She yelled. The Raichu ran out onto the battle field, glaring at its opponent. "Raichu, Thunder!" Allie yelled. Raichu jumped high into the air and fired a huge bolt at Cyanea. "Cyanea, quick, Dive underground!" Esther warned. Cyanea dug a hole into the ground just before the bolt hit the spot it had been standing in not long ago. "Oh boy…" Allie said. "Agility, Raichu!" Raichu ran about feverously, but it wasn't any use. Cyanea popped out of the ground right where Raichu happened to be at the time, and made the electric mouse go flying into a tree. Esther figured this would be a great time for the capture, so she threw a smoke bomb into the area. It exploded and filled the place with smoke. "*Cough, cough* Nayru, what are you *cough* doing?!" Allie wheezed. "Hah! You fell for it!" Esther exclaimed, throwing off her disguise. Underneath was her new uniform, complete with the blood red 'R' on the chest. As the smoke cleared, Allie saw the letter and gasped. "Team Rocke…" She was cut off, however, as Cyanea slammed into her, paralyzing her. "Good work, Cyanea!" Esther said, removing the trainer's pokéballs from her belt.
After this, she raced off into the woods with her loot, only to be confronted by Robin. "Bryars, what do you thinking you were doing?!" Robin hissed angrily. Esther stepped back in surprise. "I…was only doing what I was suppose to be doing, right?" Robin frowned. "That was…" She then thought about what had just happened. "Actually, you did pretty well. You just messed up on one or two things, but you were successful, at least. Not the best capture by a Team Rocket member, but a pretty good one for a trainee." Robin continued, brushing her bangs out of her face.
"You think Gio…I mean, the Boss, will be impressed?" Esther asked, almost slipping up.
"Perhaps so. Come on, let's get to a safe spot and find out what we bagged!" Robin said. As they ran to a safer place, Robin secretly smiled. She's better than I anticipated. Now we'll just have to see what we got!
How is it so far? Totally cool? Totally dumb? Great for putting you to sleep without having to take a sleeping pill at night? ^_^ R & R!!
