Heh, haven't updated this story for over a year have I? Opps on my part. XD Well, enjoy!
Jessie and James stumbled out of the raging river, cold, wet, and shaking. Jessie's red hair was sopped and hung limply on her back. She picked algae and mud off of her then wrung out her hair.
"That had to be the most horrible thing I ever did!" Jessie complained. James was still pulling things out of his hair.
"At least we survived." James replied. Jessie snorted loudly. Getting covered with mud and other things wasn't her idea of surviving.
"So, which path should we take now?" she asked. James scanned the area. There were trees pretty much everywhere except in one direction.
"Let's go that way." James said, pointing to the tree-vacant spot that was West. Jessie nodded and followed after him. By this time, it was around noon and the mid-summer sun beat down on them at a high angle, burning Jessie's neck slightly. Jessie looked into her water bottle. Half empty.
"James? How are we supposed to find Meowth? He could be anywhere!" Jessie said suddenly. James thought for a moment about what she said.
"Maybe Arbok could help. It probably knows Meowth's scent with all the years we've been together." James replied. Jessie stared.
"You have a brain??!!! That is a good idea! Arbok go!" Jessie exclaimed. Arbok popped out of its Pokeball and stared blankly at Jessie.
"Okay Arbok. Sniff for Meowth's scent." She commanded. Arbok lifted its nose into the air and sniffed around and pointed its head West. James and Jessie shrugged and headed West. Arbok followed. They walked for what seemed like hours. Slowly, the trees disappeared as well as the grass and were replaced by bare dirt. The farther they walked the more bare and dusty the landscape became. Finally, they came to a very large vacant area. Jessie held her arm out to stop James.
"What? Why did you stop?" James asked confused. Jessie scanned the area. There was no wildlife or plant life to be seen. Dust plagued the area and filtered out quite a lot of sunshine. There were places in the area where huge holes were blasted in the ground.
"Arbok, do Poison Sting on an area away from us." Jessie whispered. Arbok obeyed and the fine needles shot out about 50 feet from them. About a second after they hit the ground, dirt exploded everywhere. Dirt shot into the air and more dust flooded up, filtering out more sun.
"Just as I thought. This is a minefield." Jessie said dramatically. She returned Arbok and turned to James.
"Are you sure this is a minefield?" James asked with worry. She nodded.
"Unfortunately yes. But maybe if we run through fast enough, we can avoid the explosions. It's our only choice." Jessie explained. James looked absolutely terrified.
"Can't you just use Arbok to blast the mines?" James asked. Jessie shook her head.
"There would then be so much dust that we wouldn't be able to see. We have to try." Jessie said. James reluctantly agreed. She grabbed his hand and then he felt better.
"On 3 okay?" Jessie asked. James nodded as much as he could.
"1…2…3…GO!" Jessie yelled. They darted onto the field and mines began to explode behind them. It seemed the mines were old because they weren't exploding right on contact which was a good thing. Still running, they were showered with tons of dirt as the mines exploded just behind them. They jumped over the last one and turned to see the last mine blow up just feet from them, showering them with mounds of dirt. They looked out as far as they could and saw a trail of holes where they had ran. The dust was now so thick that it blocked out the sun completely.
"Well, look on the bright side. We won't have to go through that again. We can just follow our trail." James said.
To be continued…
Yes. I know it could've been better but at least I updated right? RIGHT? Oh fine. Don't answer me. LOL! Well, review!
