Chapter V- On to Mt. Moon
We walked along the road following the grass all the way to the entrance to
Mt.Moon. I was hoping to find a Jigglypuff or a Clefairy before we went inside, but I
didn't. Erika stopped at the entrance and said,
"It sure is dark in there. Maybe to dark to see."
"Well, if it is, we have that problem solved already." I said and pulled out charmanders
pokeball. "Go charmander, light the tunnel!" Chamander hoped out of his pokeball and
made the flame on the tip of his tail burn brighter and hotter.
"Great!" Erika yelled, "Go Charmander, help Marcys' charmander light the tunnel."
"I don't think your charmander will be of much help." I said kindly. She stopped and
looked at me.
"What!?"
"I didn't mean that in a mean way, it's just that since your charmanders flame is blue...it
won't give off very much light."
"That's true."
"I mean, you can bring him out if you want..."
"No that's alright."
We walked on through the tunnel, but the light from my charmanders tail scared
away any pokemon that we could see. The tunnel was long and still very dark, even with
charmander lighting the way. It slowly got darker and darker and I wondered why.
"Charmander, are you alright?" I asked and patted her head. She was sweeting and her
flame was very tiny. "Charmander, come back into your pokeball." I pulled out her
pokeball, and was about to call her back when she said,
"Charm..mader...man...(pant)Charm...Charm.." *Please...don't call me back.(pant) I want
to help.*
"Don't worry we'll find our way." I said and called her back.
"Charm!" *No!*
After I called her back, I realized just how dark and cold it really was. I sat down
on the ground and took off my back pack.
"What are you doing?" Erika asked and sat down next to me.
"I'm looking to see if I have a blanket."
"For what?"
"For us. We're going to freeze with all this cross ventilation." I rummuged through my
back pack blindly, dropping things on the ground.
"Oh. Hey! Where there's air, there's a way out!" Erika said and called out her
Charmander. "Charmander, try and light the way!"
"Charm!" *O.K!*
I pulled out the sheet we used when we ate in Viridian Forest, and stood up.
"Well, it's gonna have to do. Come'er Erika." I said and held up a an end for Erika to
climb under. She came over next to me and we each shared half of the blanket over our
shoulders.
We followed the low light that Erika's Charmander gave off and finally saw the
exit of the cave. It was still a good distance away when I heard something behind us.
"What was that?" I asked and dropped my half of the blanket.
"Did ya see something?" Erika asked and turned around to face me.
"Look!" I quietly said and pointed to two tiny figures.
"Charmander, shed some light over here." Erika said and pointed toward their direction.
"Look at that!" I said, "It's two Clefairy's fighting over an apple! I must have dropped one
looking for the blanket!"
The two Clefairy's then looked up at us.
"Go Charmander!" Erika yelled dropping the blanket. Charmander hoped over and yelled,
"Charm...MANDER!" *Prepare...TO FIGHT!*
"Go Pidgeotto!" I yelled and threw out his pokeball.
"Pidge..ottooo!" *All right!*
"Charmander, ember attack!" Erika yelled and Chamander spit out toungs of blue fire at
one of the Clefairys.
"All right! The other's mine! Go Pidgeotto! Quick attack!" I yelled and Pidgeotto dived at
the Clefairy, knocking it down.
"Right! Charmander, slash attack!" Erika yelled, and it's talons began to shine, then it
swiftly brought them down on the Clefairy.
"All right Pidgeotto, gust attack!" I yelled and it flew up high, clapping it's wings together
in front of it, creating a blast of air. It hit the Clefairy three times and knocked it out on
the fourth.
"Pokeball, go!" I yelled and threw a pokeball at it. It hit the Clefairy on the stomach,
calling it into the pokeball. "All right! We got a Clefairy!" I yelled, picked up my new
pokemon and finished watching Erikas' fight.
"Clafairy!" *Enough!* It jumped up into the air and started to slap charmander with both
of it's hands. It was starting to look bad, when just then, something happened, something
that only happens when a pokemon is ready. Erikas' chamander began to evolve!
"What's happening!" Erika yelled and watched wide-eyed.
"It's evolving!" I yelled and watched in excitment.
Chamander began to glow red, then a blast of white light surrounded him, hidding him
from our vision. We both closed our eyes, and when it had gone, there stood a
Charmeleon. It's flame rejuvenated, and it's eyes still as green.
"CHAR MEL..EON!" *Let's go!* It yelled and began to slash Clefairy even harder.
"It's beautiful!" Erika yelled as tears welled up in her eyes.
"It's amazing!" I yelled as I watched it fight with such dedication.
"Pokeball, Go!" Erika yelled and threw a pokeball at the injured Clefairy. It hit it right on
the head and instantly captured it.
"Yeah! Great job Charmeleon!" She yelled and picked him up.
"Charm!" *Thanks!* he said and hugged her tight.
