Chapter Eight: Michelle's new pok e' mon
In Fuchsia's safari zone the game warden was looking at the young Dratini swimming in one of the salt water ponds. There was a huge splash all of the sudden. Michelle found when she woke up that she was under water tangled in sea weed.
"Drat-ini?" Michelle look to where she heard the sound and saw some thing that look like a cross between a eel and snake. The Dratini knew Michelle was in trouble. It used it's tackle attack on the sea weed breaking the tough strands. It then swum under Michelle and floated slowly to the surface. The warden saw Michelle popped to the surface riding the Dratini.
Are you all right?" The warden called to her. Once Michelle stop coughing up salt water she answer the warden.
"Yeah, thanks to her." Said Michelle patting the Dratini's side.
"Dratini." Said the pok e' mon please. The creature swum toward shore. Michelle got off.
"What happen?" Ask the warden.
"Don't know." Answer Michelle.
"I do." Said a male voice. Michelle try to call her henshin stick in case it was an enemy but found it wouldn't come. A dark skin boy step out of the woods.
"My name's Brock. I tell you what happen. But first will you go on a date with me?" Brock said. Michelle drew her hand back and slap the boy hard. "Your in an alternate dimension. You can't get back and your friends are all becoming pok e' mon trainers. Here's your Pok e' dex and pok e' balls if you want to become a trainer too." Said Brock with swirls in his eyes. After Michelle had took the various items he held out Brock promptly faint. "Where am I?" Michelle ask.
"Fuchsia City Safari Zone. A pok e' mon preserve. We keep the rare pok e' mon here. We let people come get them but they can't battle and have to use weak safari pok e' balls." Said the warden. Michelle saw a ball like the one's she been given laying on the ground.
"Is this one?" ask Michelle.
"Yes. Some one must of drop it. You can use it to catch your first pok e' mon if you like."
"How about that one?" Ask Michelle pointing to the Dratini.
"Well usually no because it's rarer then the most rare pok e' mon but it likes you and I'm sure you'll take good care of it." The Dratini shook it's head yes vigorously. Michelle threw the ball at the Dratini. The ball stuck the Dratini and capture it with no effort. "So you know it's two attacks are Leer, which lowers the opponents defense, and wrap which is just what it sounds like. The two people standing in the glade heard a boy and girl coming from the same way as Brock.
How did Brock find that picture of that girl from the other dimension?" ask the boy.
"I don't know. I just hope we're in time to stop him from making a fool of him self." The girl replied. The girl and boy came out of the forest. They saw the girl and Brock laying on the ground. "Too late. Staryu water gun attack." The girl held out a ball and what look like a giant sea star came out. A steam of water came out and struck Brock in the face.
"Mmmpph. You can stop! I'm awake!"
"We apologize for our friend. I'm the gym leader of pallet town master gym. My name is Ash Ketchum and this is my wife Missy Cerulean Ketchum." Said the boy. There was a blue turtle standing on two legs beside the boy. "This is a friend of mine. He's a fire fighter who's on vacation. He's call Squirtle." Squirtle said the creature doing the victory symbol.
"Please to meet you." Said the girl.
Do you already have a pok e' mon?" ask the boy.
"Yes. A drag iny." Answered Michelle. Ash laugh.
"A Dratini. We go to the docks and missy can teach you to battle." said Ash.
"Why her?" ask Michelle.
"My wife is the Cerulean gym leader and the number one researcher of water pok e' mon." Said Ash proudly.
At the dock. "I'll give you some battle experience if you care to." Ash told Michelle.
"Go Datrini!" Said Michelle throwing the pok e' ball onto the pier. It open and out came the beam of red energy which transform into Datrini.
"Care to fight one more battle for me old friend?" Ash direct the question to the Squirtle which nodded yes and step in front of him. "O.K. Go easy. Squirtle skull bash attack now." Said Ash pointing at the Dartini. The Squirtle launch into a flying tackle.
"Dratini avoid it by diving into the water!" Said order Michelle. Her Dartini jump up into the air in a somersault and land in the water.
"Good move." Praised Misty.
"Squirtle water gun attack it down there." The Squritle walk over to the side and open it mouth. A gush of water hurtle down to the water.
"Dartini under water." Command Michelle. The water hit where the Dartini was.
"That attack wouldn't of done a lot of damage. Water attacks don't do much damage to water types." Misty told Michelle.
"Dartini jump under and out of the water and give Squirtle a leer each time your out." The Dartini did what it told giving Squirtle a leer attack three times.
"Squirtle dive into the water too. We can at least attack it back." Ash told the Squirtle.
"Dartini jump up and give it your wrap attack." Order Michelle. The two pok e' mon head to each other in midair. Squirtle withdraw into his shell. The Dartini warp it self around Squirtle's shell.
"Good move Squirtle. Shake it off with Hydro pump." A gush of water came out of each of the holes in Squirtle's shell at a angle causing both pok e' mon to spin around rapidly. Eventfully the centrifugal force tore Dartini from Squirtle. All of the sudden Dartini start to get an yellow glow about it. Michelle open her pok e' dex.
"Dartini's Thunder Wave attack." Said the computerize voice of the pok e' dex.
"I thought Dartini only knew leer and wrap." Michelle said.
"The more experience they have the more attacks a pok e' mon learns." Misty explained. Squirtles limbs and head came back out. Squirtle had swirls in it eyes.
"It's paralyze." Ash cry in horror.
"Dartini finish it with wrap attack." Dartini in the water again launch it self at Squirtle. This time it warp it's body around the head and each of the limbs. Squirtle came alive at the pain and try to escape the attack. Both pok e' mon soar into the air carry by momentum. They came down on the dock hard. Dartini release Squirtle. Squirtle try to stand up and promptly faint.
"Squirtle is unable to battle. Dartini and Michelle win!" Cry Misty.
"For a rookie who previously had no idea what pok e' mon were your good." Ash compliment Michelle.
"How you get my picture?" Ask Michelle. "And know where to find me?"
"Your freind Serena gave it to Professor Oak when she stop by. The Professor found the pattern in the space warps openings"
"My cousin. I want to find her. Could he help me?" Ask Michelle.
"Yes." Answer Misty.
"Can you tell me the fastest way to Professor Oak." Ask Michelle.
"Better yet I'll show you. We're heading home from vacation any way. It's by sea." The four pok'e mon trainers climb on. Michelle was first, follow by Missy, Ash, and finally Brock.
