Chapter XXXVIII- Fire v.s Water; Marcy of Cinnibar v.s. Misty of Cerulean
"Will trainer number G48 step up?" The judge said, and as I got out of my seat, I looked
around. Jarod and Hinokoai were in the stands cheering, and I'm positive my mom was
watching on T.V. with my dad.
"I'm ready Misty." I said as I took my spot opposite her on the field.
"Right Marcy. I hope your team is electric." She replied smugly.
"Ready trainers? BEGIN!" I grabbed Leafeon's Masterball and threw it out. Misty tossed
out a Lure Ball. It was her Tentacruel. Lucky....that was the one water pokemon that
Leafeon couldn't handle, and I knew that.
"Tentacruel, poison sting!" Misty yelled, and it lunged forward at Leafeon.
"Leafeon, Agility!" I yelled and he dissapeared, reappearing around Tentacruel attempting
to confuse it. It wasn't working.
"Tentacruel wrap!" He slapped his tentacles onto the floor, causing Leafeon to trip, and
giving him enough time to grab him. "Now, constrict!"
"Leafeon!!! Think !@%^ $%!! Think, what did he learn that would really hurt if
Tentacruel was hangging on to him so tight like that!!??OH!! Leafeon! Rose Thorns!!"
The thorns on Leafeons back stood up and stuck tight into Tentacruel, injecting him with
poison. Tentacruel let go of him and backed off a little.
"Tentacruel, Hydro Pump!" Misty yelled and it hit the grass, cracking a small fissure in
the ground, where water came shooting out, it hit Leafeon, causing him to fly up into the
air.
"Perfect!!"
"?" Misty was confused.
"Leafeon, SOLAR BEAM!!" I yelled, and the leaves of his mane began to glow, then he
blasted a beam of bright white light from his mouth that hit Tentacruel, ko'ing him.
Leafeon landed back down on the ground panting, but in one piece. He was fine after
Misty called Tentacruel back.
"Go Mantine!" She yelled, and threw out his Lure Ball.
"Leafeon, Sweet Scent!" The leaves on his tail moved around a bit, rubbing them together
and causing a wonderful perfume that put the Mantine into a daze-like state. "Now, Razor
Leaf!" I yelled, and Leafeon threw his head and neck around, makeing the leaves shoot
out, and hit Mantine who tried effortlessly, and unsucsesfully, to doge them.
"Mantine, Wing Attack!" Misty yelled, and he was out of the daze as fast as he fell into it.
He flew over and hit Leafeon boad-side, but accidentelly scrapping himself against
Leafeon's thorns. Leafeon fell down, done for that time. He was too tired to battle from
the previous one.
"Leafeon, Return!" I said and called him back. Even though the Mantine knew he
scrapped Leafeon's thorns, he didn't know he was poisoned, and apparently neither did
Misty. Maybe this is my chance to try out that pokemon Noki lent me? Why not? I'm
wearing the charcoal, Mantine's poisoned, and I still have Raichu....Let's give it a shot.
"Go!" I yelled and threw out the strange looking pokeball. What came out of it was
awsome. It was a pokemon that I saw in my dreams once. From then on, I wanted to find
a way to breed one. "Raion...Orion..." I said and it turned to look at me. It immediatly
recognized me, mistaking me for my older self who probobly originally created it, with
the help of Bill and Dave. It was lion like in it's body and colors. It had a red flowing
mane, large paws with retractable nails, two crimsion gems on it's forehead, and fire
around its ankles. It's whiskers looked just like a Meowths and it's eye's looked like
Entei's.
"What is that? Fire type? Ha!" Misty said. "Mantine, wing attack!" It flew over to Raion,
but he jumped into the air, compleatly avoiding it. "Hey!"
"Well, if this is the pokemon in my dream...it should know, Fury Cutter!!" I yelled, and as
it came down to the ground, it clawed Mantine, each time causing more damage, until
that and the poison ko'ed it.
"Mantine, return! Go Vaporeon!" She yelled as she called back Mantine and threw out
Vaporeon's pokeball.
"Orion, Roar!" I yelled and he opened his mouth, exposing his teeth, and creating a
deafening roar. Me and Misty both covered out ears as the wave passed over Vaporeon,
paralzing it.
"Vaporeon!" Misty yelled as soon as she removed her hands from over her ears, "Water
gun!"
"Orion! Extreem Speed!" I yelled and he dissapeared, reappearing ocassionally, hitting
Varporeon, while she tried to hit him with a water gun attack. One hit him, but it didn't
seem to phase him at all.
"Vaporeon, forget it! Try your Hydro Pump!" Vaporeon jumped into the air, panting, and
Orion stopped circling around her. She hit the ground and another fissure opened, while
water came shooting out.
"Orion, Light Screen!" I yelled, and it blocked most of the water. "Now, Sacred Fire!" I
yelled, and he lifted his head up to the sky. His mane began to move about like an unseen
wind was blowing it, and the fire on his ankles engulfed his body, as it did, it formed a
wall, and Orion ran, as a flame, and body slammed Vaporeon, into the ground burning it
and some of the grass. The fire died down and Orion returned to his spot next to me.
"Vaporeon, return!" She said, and the judge replied,
"The match is over, Misty of Cerulean City has been defeated by Marcy Blaze of
Cinnabar Island!" The crowd cheered and I looked around to wave to Jarod and Hinokoai.
I could barely hear them over the roaring of the crowd, but I heard Hinokoai yell out to
me,
"Great job Orion!! GREAT JOB MOM!!"
"#$^&!!!" I gasped as Jarod turned to Noki, looking at her suspiciusly. She turned a little
red and sat back down, but the crowd was still going. Jarod turned to her and asked her
something then turned to look at me, and her then at me. He must have done that at least
four times before he jumped down onto the last row of seats before the field. The crowd
was still going, apparently my mom had sent everyone we knew from Cinnabar a ticket to
watch me, so they were all there, still cheering. I took advantage of this, and snuck over to
Jarod.
"And exactly when were you going to tell me about this little adventure of yours?" He
asked.
"Well.....I didn't want it to come to you as a shock....and I didn't want it to ruin our
relationship. It was basicly to keep us together."
"Oh....Angel, you know I'll love you forever, there's no way that us having a child could
come to be a surprise to me. Seeing her a good 10 years before she's born is however."
"I'm sorry. I should've told you." I said and looked down at the ground as the crowd
finally settled down.
"We'll talk about it later. Don't worry. I'm not angry^_^" He said and I looked back up at
him. His eyes were teary, but it's not like he was going to cry or anything, it was one of
those sentimental moments.
"Congratulations!" Noki yelled as I walked back to my spo on the field. The last two
battles were easy compared to Misty. One girl was from Celedon City and used to be one
of the trainers at the grass pokemon gym there. Orion took her entire team out with three
flamethrowers. His power was unimaginable. Then, a boy from Vermillion came along.
his team was comprised of Voltorb, Beedrill, and Dugtrio. I used Leafeon against Voltorb
since it's electric attacks wouldn't work against him; I used Orion for the Beedrill, which
was kind of a waste of so much power; and I used Raichu's Ice Beam to freeze the
Dugtrio after they made some scratches on Raichu.
"The Finalest on the Grass field, MARCY BLAZE of Cinnabar Island!!" I could hear all
the girls in the crowd shouting and laughing at all the boys, who got there butt whipped
by a girl. But then, the whole crowd cheered on, and the announcer said, "Now, the
finalest on the Rock field, JACK IWA! of Pewter City! On the Fire field, the finalest is,
RAIUKO ARASHI!! The super charged girl from Ecruteak City in Jhoto! And, last of all,
on the Ice field, the finalest is.................................we're waiting for the battle to
finish..............nice manuver...................I wonder what kind of pokemon that
is.....?........THERE YOU HAVE IT!! AN AWSOME FINISH!! THE WINNER
IS........ERIKA CRIMSON OF CINNABAR ISLAND!!" He announced and my heart
jumped. I was so happy that finally, we made it all this way together! But, there was only
one problem....We would have to battle each other....to win the spot of pokemon
master...."Will the finalests of the Grass and Ice fields find there appointed seats on the
Fire field!" The announcer finished, and I walked out of the stadium to find the fire field.
"Marcy!!" Erika yelled.
"Erika!! We made it this far!!" I yelled and we ran over to each other and hugged.
"Do you know where the fire field is?" She asked as we walked down the hall.
"No......do you?" I asked. We both stopped.
"Ok, well. You came from one direction, and I came from the other; we met in the middle
to hug, so it has to be one of these two." She said and pointed to two huge archways on
either side of us.
"I'll look at this one, you check out that one." I said and ran over to the arch on my right.
"K!" Erika said and ran over to the arch way on her left. "It's this one!" She said and
waved me over. We stood side by side and walked in that way. The crowd cheered as we
walked in, and judges congratulated us, showing us to our seats.
"Thank you!" We both said as we were seated and the judges left. They gave the four
finalests medals, and the winner would recive a trophy and a special surprise.
"Trainers numbers F20 and R43, please step up and prepare your pokemon. As
customary, you will now use all six pokemon and any moves that you have created." That
is what made the competition in the finals so difficult. The trainer and pokemon could use
any moves at all, including ones that the trainer or pokemon made up. That way it's
unpredictable. "Trainers, Begin!" The judge yelled. Raiuko threw out a yellow masterball
and Jack threw out a Safari ball. Raiuko had sent out her Raichu, and Jack sent out his
Rydon. They duked it out, but there was no way Raichu could have won. Next, Raiuko
sent out Lanturn. It was a big fish-like pokemon that was water\electric type. She had no
problem finishing Rydon with one Hydro Pump. The rest of Jack's line up was rock or
ground type. All Raiuko had to do was use Lanturn's Hydro Pump, but the fifth time she
tried, it missed.
"Steelix, use metal tail!" Jack yelled and Steelix slammed it's tail into Lanturn, Ko'ing it.
"Lanturn, return! Go, Magneton!" She yelled and threw out an Ultra Ball. "Since Steel is
weak against so many things," she paused, "and Magneton is part steel....your steel
attacks won't have any effect on them." She paused again to give Jack a chance to think.
"Magneton, Thunderbolt!" She yelled and the Magneton finished off Steelix.
"Steelix, return!" The battle was over and now it was time for either me or Erika to battle
Raiuko....but which one?
"Will trainer number G48 step up?" The judge said, and as I got out of my seat, I looked
around. Jarod and Hinokoai were in the stands cheering, and I'm positive my mom was
watching on T.V. with my dad.
"I'm ready Misty." I said as I took my spot opposite her on the field.
"Right Marcy. I hope your team is electric." She replied smugly.
