Episode 10: Fighting aMAZEment
The early morning air filled the lungs of the trainers as the walked the small trail through the forest. The trees stood tall all along the trail providing shade every so often. As they continued to walk Jo suddenly stopped with a confused look on her face.
"Okay.why are we in a forest when we were just at the beach?" Jo asked confused.
Daylena stopped and turned around.
"Look you idiot just shut your mouth nobody asked you to come with us anyway!" Daylena sneered.
Jo first looked at Daylena confused by her actions and then began to fume.
"Im tired of you I have put up with enough of you rudeness! " She said picking up a thick stick.
"And what are you gonna do with that?" Daylena said laughing, setting down minun on the ground.
Jo rushed at Daylena and swung the stick upward into Daylena's chin sending her into a nearby tree, she slammed into it hitting her head. Daylena rubbed her red chin while Jo was rushing at her swinging the stick like a crazed woman. Daylena grabbed some dirt and tossed it into Jo's eyes causing her to stop and rub them; she then got a small rock and smashed it across Jo's face and then swung it and hit the opposite side. Daylena tossed down the rock and kicked Jo in the stomach making her roll down a small hill and smack into a large rock.
"This is getting good! "Dave said as he walked down the hill with Daylena.
Jo got up dazed and dodged the incoming fist of Daylena making it smack into the rock.
Jo then grabbed Daylena's hair and Daylena grabbed hers and they began to swing around slamming into the nearby large rocks. Jo kneed her in the stomach and tossed her into the stone wall and began to scratch her face rapidly. Daylena slipped free and punched Jo in the face and then in the stomach making Jo clench her stomach, Daylena bent down and did a swooping kick making Jo fall on her back onto the small rocks. Daylena coughed and slowly picked up a sharp rock and held it above Jo.
Jo let out a scream as Daylena brought down the stone toward her stomach.
"Nooooooo," Jo screamed as she sat up in her sleeping bag.
Daylena and Dave looked at one another and then looked at Jo as they rolled up there sleeping bags.
"Um..are you okay?" Daylena said looking at Jo strangely.
Jo blinked as she wiped the sweat from her forehead realizing that it was a dream.
"I just had a nightmare.."
Daylena laughed.
"What did you dream that you lost another battle with me! "
Jo forced a laugh.
"Something like that..., "
After packing up they headed toward the gym that was a short distance away from where they were sleeping. They walked to the center of the small beach town and came upon the small gym and opened the doors. The gym resembled a maze, tall walls were everywhere that led in different directions and dead- ends. As they walked the maze they came upon a large square room with wooden floors. A man stood in the center of the room; he had spiked blue hair and wore an orange shirt with blue pants. He smiled at the trainers as they walked in.
"Hello and welcome to the Dewford gym were I specialize in fighting pokemon, people call me Brawly," he said as he made fighting poses.
"Im Dave and this is my twin sis Daylena and are friend Jo, me and my sis are hoping to get are second badges. "
Brawly smiled.
"Twins huh? How about we make things interesting and have a two on two battle, me using two pokemon and you each using one?"
"That sounds great!" Daylena yelled.
"Okay then let's begin"
Brawly grabbed two pokeballs from his pocket and threw them in the center of the gym releasing two pokemon. One of the pokemon was a familiar one, a short chubby yellow makuhita, while the other was a grey muscular pokemon that let out a "machop! ".
"Plusle you'll sit this one out, "Dave said petting plusle on the head.
Dave threw his pokeball and it released his meditite which went into a meditating position. Daylena decided to use her minun who bounced in next to meditite.
"Let's begin! Machop focus energy, makuhita bulk up!"
"Meditite meditate!"
"Minun go in for a spark!"
Machop began to fume and focus his energy as makuhita flexed his muscle and began to grow in size. Meditite started to meditate making his attack increase when minun charged at makuhita with sparks jumping from his cheeks, the electricity swirled around minun's body as minun tackled him making makuhita fly back.
"Machop use low kick! Now! "
As minun landed from the spark attack machop swung around his foot striking minun in the head making him flip on his back.
"Meditite confusion attack!"
Meditite stopped meditating and he threw out his hand and used confusion sending out a white energy making machop fly back next to makuhita. Minun got up and bounced next to meditite ready to fight.
"Okay both of you attack meditite! Arm thrust and karate chop!"
The pokemon got up and raced toward meditite. Makuhita grabbed minun and punched him back sending minun tumbling back. Makuhita then began to thrust his arms into meditite as machop let out a flurry of karate chops on him.
"Meditite use bide!"
Meditite began to glow white as the pokemon continued to let of a barrage of blows on him.
"Keep hitting guys! He won't be able to release that bide and will faint soon. "
"Minun use thunderwave!"
Minun shook his head and slowly got up and looked at machop and makuhita from across the gym. His cheeks began to spark and he got on all fours then let out a thunderwave that flew across the gym. The thunderwave absorbed into makuhita and machop causing them to be instantly paralyzed. Meditite then began to glow red and released the energy from the bide sending the red energy into the pokemon. The pokemon back flipped several times and slid to the feet of brawly who returned there fainted pokemon to there pokeballs.
Brawly let out a loud laugh.
"That was a great battle! I haven't had a more interesting battle like that in a while, "
Daylena picked up minun.
"That was a great battle! And minun you did a great job."
Dave started to pat meditite on the head but he moved away.
"Meditite.you should be happy we just won a battle,"
Meditite gave Dave a serious look and began to meditate.
"Hmmm meditites usually have serious personalities.well here are you guys badges," Brawly said as he handed the twins metal badges that looked like small punching gloves.
Jo and plusle walked over to the twins and congratulated them on there new badges. After saying goodbye to Brawly they left the gym and started to walk to the pokemon center. As they were walking a small boy walked from behind a building and approached the trainers.
"Dave? Jo? Daylena? " the small boy said looking at the trainers.
"How do you know are names?" Jo said not knowing who the small boy was.
"Some strange people told me.and he told me to give you guys these,"
The small boy handed each of them a brown envelope with there names on them. Dave opened the letter and began to read it aloud.
"Dear trainers, you have been invited to join strong trainers such as yourself on an adventure to riches. If wish to miss this opportunity for experience and riches do not follow the map below. Please arrive early tomorrow and don't be late, "
The trainers gathered around the letter and looked at the map. The map showed they were a very short distance away from an abandoned ship that was off the coast of Dewford city.
"This is strange.first how does this 'person' know are name? And an abandoned ship? It doesn't sound right, "Jo said to the twins.
"Where's your sense of adventure wimp! And it says experience!"
"She's kinda right Jo.it does sound like it would be fun, "Dave said to Jo.
"Okay I guess, "Jo said looking at the ground.
The trainers decided to get some rest so they could wake up early the next day. Jo was still unsure about the whole idea and what might happen when they get there. She knew there would be more then just experience and riches.something more.dangerous
