Chapter 18: Trouble In Slowpoke Well
Silver walked a short while before finally coming up to the gate to Azalea Town.
"I can't believe I'm finally here!", he said to himself. He then saw Crystal running up to him. She had a
worried look on her face, and it looked serious.
"Silver, I'm so glad that you're here, something terrible is going on!", she cried. Silver looked at her. She
then led him to the gym, where he saw that it was closed.
"That's all?", he laughed, "that's not terrible". Suddenly a voice behind him spoke.
"That's not the worst part", the voice said. Startled, Crystal and Silver spun around and saw that an old man
was who the voice belonged to.
"Well, what is the worst part?", Silver asked the old man.
"The towns Slowpoke have been disappearing, and I believe that Team Rocket is behind this", the man
said. Silver looked surprised. Team Rocket was that group of trainers that have been trying to steal Silver's
egg, and now they were stealing Slowpoke from the town.
"Ha!", Silver laughed, "how can two villans steal all those Slowpoke?". The old man laughed.
"Two people, Team Rocket is an evil, worldwide organization, there are more than Two-Thousand
members", said the old man. Silver nearly fainted when he heard that number. 2000 members. The
old man introduced himself as Kurt. He told the kids that he was a Pokeball maker, and that he made
very special Pokeballs, with very special characteristics.
"That's so cool!", Silver exclaimed. Kurt smiled at him.
"It is", he said, "I love giving people my services whenever they bring me the apricorns to do it". Silver
looked confused and Kurt explained that apricorns were what he made the Pokeballs out of.
"What do we do about Team Rocket?", asked Crystal. Kurt put on a serious face.
"We're going to have to stop them ourselves", he said. Silver looked ready and raring for a battle.
"2000 members or no 2000 members, Team Rocket is going down!", Silver cried.
'And I'll help!", Crystal chimed in. Kurt looked excited.
"Splendid", he exclaimed, "Wonderful, and I'll come with you!". In the meanwhile, two shady figures snuck
down into the Slowpoke Well. These two shady characters were, without a doubt, Mitch and Julie, the
two Team Rocket members Silver was familiar with.
"We're the masters of all that's wrong", said Mitch.
"Hear us sing our villanous song", said Julie.
"Stealing Pokemon every day and night", said Mitch.
"Going against what is right!", said Julie.
"Mitch", said Mitch.
"Julie", said Julie.
"We're Team Rocket, faster than light", said Mitch.
"Give us your Pokemon or get ready to fight!", said Julie.
"But nobody's here!", Mitch cried.
"I know, we were told to report inside!", Julie said. She sighed, "Out of all the partners I could have had,
why did they stick me with you?", she asked herself. The evil duo proceeded down the well even further,
when they saw a man in a business suit. This was indeed their boss, the man that took over when Giovanni
retired. He went by the name of Jack, and next to him was a large, black Pokemon that looked like a dog.
This Pokemon was a Houndoom.
"Glad you could make it", said Jack, "our mission now is simple, round up every single Slowpoke in this
town and bring them to us, where we can chop off their tasty tails and sell them!". Mitch made a grossed
out face.
"Slowpoketails, those are gross!", Mitch cried. Julie agreed with him.
"You bumbling idiots, you don't have to eat them if you don't want!", screamed Jack, "just bring the
Slowpoke to me and we'll handle the rest!".
"Yes. sir!", Mitch and Julie said in unison as they headed out of the cave.
"We'll, you geard the man!", Julie said, "It's time to hunt us some Slowpoke!".
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Silver, aren't you concerned?", Crystal asked Silver as they walked in the direction of Slowpoke Well.
"2000 members will be a piece of cake for my Pokemon", he said back as Kurt tagged behind. As they
got closer to the cave. they saw Mitch and Julie with Slowpoke in their arms.
"Hey, leave those Slowpoke alone!", Silver shouted. Julie just laughed.
"Ah, if it isn't the twerp!", she said, "just stay out of our way today kid, and watch us cut the tails off of these
Slowpoke!". At that moment, Mitch's face turned green, he looked ready to vomit.
"Team Rocket, leave the Slowpoke alone!", screamed Kurt, he charged at Mitch and Julie and knocked
them, Slowpoke and all, down into the well. Silver and Crystal ran up to it and looked in.
"Shouldn't we help Kurt?", Crystal asked.
"Right!", said Silver, "let's go check it out. Silver and Crystal ran into the cave, and found Kurt kneeling on
the floor.
"Are you OK?", Silver asked. Kurt winced in agony.
"My back, I threw out my back for the hundreth time this week!", he cried. Suddenly, Mitch and Julie
reappeared right in front of them.
"Don't you give up?!", yelled Silver. Team Rocket laughed.
"You can't get away!", Mitch yelled. He and Julie sent out their Pokemon. Silver sent out Cyndaquil and
Crystal sent out Pidgeotto.
'That Pidgeotto looks cool!", Silver commented, and Crystal smiled at him, that kind of smile that said
thank you and I love you at the same time. Silver didn't notice the I love you part, though.
"Cyndaquil, use your Ember attack!", Silver yelled. Cyndaquil easily knocked out Paras, while Pidgeotto
took care of Sandshrew.
"You think it's over, Don't you, well wait until you see who we brought along!", Julie shouted. A pair of dark
red eyes appeared from the shadows. Soon, a Flamethrower attack came from that direction and engulfed
Cyndaquil and Pidgeotto, knocking them out.
"What is that?", Silver asked. He checked his Pokedex and found out that it was a Houndoom. This was the
same Houndoom that Jack, the Team Rocket boss, had.
"So, you kids are here to join the fun", said a voice. Silver, Crystal and Kurt looked up and saw Jack walk
out of the shadows, "so, it's you that's trying to stop my evil plan, well have I got plans for you!".
"Like what?!", Crystal asked. Jack threw a mysterious ball. It broke open and gas came out. The gas put
Silver, Crystal and Kurt to sleep. 2 Rocket henchmen appeared next to Jack.
"Take care of them", Jack said with a snicker, "tie them up and leave them deep in the cave, and show
no mercy". The henchmen nodded and carried the gang away. Jack thanked Mitch and Julie for stopping
them and asked them to find more Slowpoke.
"Right on it, sir!", Julie yelled. Mitch and Julie stepped out of the well to find more Slowpoke. Jack turned
around and laughed.
"Soon, the world will be mine!", he yelled. But what is in store for our heroes, stay tuned until next time.
