Chapter 8: On Top of Mount Moon

Chris and Anne were walking on a hill that led to Mount Moon.

"Hey, there's Mount Moon!"

"Chris, I'm tired. Let's take a rest and have lunch."

Chris, who looked a little disheartened at delaying his journey reluctantly sat down and got the food bag.

"Huh? There's no food left. #$(%&$&%&%#!!!! How the damn will we survive for a day?"

Anne, who started looking around, saw a basket of food on the road.

"Hey Chris, look at that basket of food."

"Hey, it's lunch! Let's go!"

"Chris, I know you're hungry, but isn't it strange that there's a basket of food in the middle of the road?"

Chris, who stopped to think couldn't because of his foodless body.

"Ah, well who cares? Let's go!"

Anne goes to the basket and picks it up and nothing happens.

"See Anne? I knew it'd be alright!"

When Chris goes next to Anne, they fall in to a hole.

"What kind of frickin idiot made this hole?"

"You dumb butt! I knew this would be a trap!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

Chris and Anne, as they thought, were looking up at Team Rocket.

"Prepare for trouble!"

"Make it double!"

"To protect the world from devastation!"

"To unite the world within our nation!"

"To denounce all evil with truth and love!"

"To extend our reaches to the stars above!"

"Jessie!"

"James!"

"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!"

"Surrender now, or prepare to fight!"

"Meowth, that's right!"

Jessie, suddenly crying said, "Oh, I knew it all along. Our original motto was our superior masterpiece! It was wrong for us to replace with a new motto. It just doesn't sound like our Team Rocket motto! The motto we used to get blasted off for over 200300 times is needed for our Team Rocket Motto Hall of Fame!"

"Uh, Jessie. I hate to interrupt you and your Hall of Fame thingy, but the twerps are trying to climb out."

"That's why I'm gonna use my super special Pokemon! Go, Superdy-Duperdy-Awesome-Cool-Unbelievable-Magical-Amazing, my Dustox! Use your Stun Spore!"

A moth-like Pokemon comes out and used Stun Spore, stunning Chris and Anne, who had gotten out of the hole.

"I can't move!"

"What the heck is that thing?"

Anne, who had some experience in the Hoenn world said, "That must be a Dustox. It's a Pokemon from the Hoenn world.

"I don't give a &##%#(&(#. Hey, is it me or is the ground shaking"

A cloud of dust comes over the entrance of Mount Moon.

Jessie, who looks frightened said, "James, excuse me, but what's that?"

A calm James just replied, "If I'm not mistaken, I guess that's a herd of Onix."

Meanwhile, the Stun Spore was starting to wear off Chris and Anne.

"Ah, we should run."

"James! How come you aren't running away?"

"Don't worry, Jessie. We always blast off anyways. It's better to just finish it right now. The twerps are free anyways, so let's just blast off the old Team Rocket way."

"You're right, James. I guess it's hopeless. Meowth, have any last words?"

"Yeah. I guess Team Rockets-,"

The herd of Onix ran over Team Rocket. they once again said,

"BLASTING OFF AGAIN!!!"

After breathing a breath of "Whew, at least Team Rocket's gone."

"But it doesn't look like we're much better off. We're trapped by the Onix."

"Don't worry. There's only about 20 of them?"

"Yeah, that's only? ONLY 20?"

Yeah, that's right. I guess we'll have to use all of our Pokemon."

"Charmeleon, Pidgeotto, Raticate, Beedrill, Butterfree, Pichu, Go!"

"Omanyte, Kabuto, Aerodactyl, Go!"

"Flamethrower, Razor Wind, Super Fang, Fury Attack, Confusion, Spark!"

"Water Gun, Tackle, Wing Attack!"

Raticate's Super Fang, Beedrill's Fury Attack, and Kabuto's Tackle didn't have much effect, but the Flamethrower, Razor Wind, Confusion, Spark, Water Gun, and Wing Attack created a tornado that was surrounded by fire, electricity, and water and it was topped off with a psychic barrier. It was aimed at the herd of Onix and there was a big explosion everywhere.

Chris and Anne were pushed back with a giant gust of wind. After Chris opened his eyes, Chris saw Anne being pushed away by the wind and in the middle of dust, Anne couldn't put any strength in and she was pushed back to a rocky wall. Chris, trying to keep himself from being knocked back, he got to the floor and gripped for what seemed forever. When he could feel the wind weakening a bit, the dust cleared along with it. He saw nothing was standing except for one big figure. All the Pokemon were down except for the one Onix. It seemed to be the leader of the Onix herd and it was way bigger than any Onix he had seen. It couldn't have been any smaller than 50 feet. The entrance going into Mount Moon was totally caved in by the explosion.

The rest of the Onix were down and he looked behind him where May was on the floor and there was blood on her back. She must've been pierced by one of the rocks. He wanted to go and help her out, but the giant Onix was on his mind. They were facing each other face-to-face. He didn't have anything that was useful against a giant Onix. After the dust totally cleared, the Onix charged at Chris. He knew this was going to happen and he had been preparing to dodge, but his legs weren't moving, as if it was stuck to the ground. However, when Chris and the Onix made contact, there was another big flash of shadow engulfing the hill in front of Mount Moon.

Chris had this weird feeling and there was something strange with his body. His arm was started to get stronger and stronger. Then the darkness seemed to press him and he thought he was going to suffocate. He looked at himself and saw him surrounded in dark shadow. His arms felt free as well as painful. He threw a punch at the giant Onix and he saw the giant Onix being pushed back. He couldn't believe his power, but it was killing him trying to produce this shadow power. After screaming in pain and agony, Chris passed out.

Chris got up and saw that all the Onix were gone. His Pokemon were still on the ground, resting. Chris got up and checked on Anne. The blood had dried, so Chris had to take Anne's shirt off and just stared at her back, he bandaged her back. The problem was that he had to wrap the bandages around her and he wrapped the bandages around her back and stomach, so that was ok, but when he finished wrapping the bandages, Anne had regained consciousness. At first, Anne went crazy and she started screaming and started punching and kicking Chris around the hill. But after hearing the story later from a very bruised Chris, she calmed down and gave Chris a kiss on the cheek.

It was a strange moment. Both Chris and Anne turned red and to escape the moment, she followed it up with a kick in the middle as Chris crumbled to the ground in pain.

"We shouldn't be sitting around here! Let's go!"

Chris got up from the ground and said, "We can't. The cave's totally blocked off. We're going to have to think of another way."

"We can't go around since the mountain kind of leads on. So, how about climbing up?"

"That's not a bad way, but it's going to be hard. Sure you can make it?"

Laughing, Anne said, "You know how tough I am. You just ask yourself if you can make it."

"Oh, yeah? Well I'm the one who saved you from all those guys back in Viridian City?"

"Well they were teaming up on me! If they fought like a man, I would've kicked their ass!"

"Sure, sure. Let's go! It's almost sunset! We didn't make any progress today! I have to get through Mount Moon, and I'm not camping until I get through it!"

As they started climbing up, they saw a broken down sign that said, 'The Pewter City Police Station would like to give people who are climbing up a warning. Mount Moon is dangerous for herds of-'

The rest of the sign was broken off due to the explosion.

Anne, who looked cautiously at the sign just looked at Chris, waiting for this decision. Chris looked blankly at the sign, and then just said, "Come on, what could be the worst that could happen to us?" Then Chris started climbing Mount Moon and Anne reluctantly followed him.

There was a cool wind blowing on Mount Moon, and it was a plateau with rocks everywhere. Anne was following Chris when she saw that the rocks were almost the same size and each one of them had special sign on them. It was the shape of a crescent moon. Amazed, Anne picked one of them up, but a small little pink ball slapped her and Anne dropped the stone shocked and angry.

"Hey, what's that?"

Chris turned around.

"Oh, that's a Clefairy. You touched its Moon Stone. Anybody should know that."

It was hard to tell if Anne was madder or Clefairy was madder. They both stared at each other for a long, long time.

"Clefairy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Clefairy made a call and other Clefairys came out from everywhere and they made a wall around Anne and Chris.

"Nice job, Anne. We just angered a herd of Clefairys. As you can tell, there's no way to get out of here unless we fight our way out. And our Pokemon's not in the best of health, so why don't we talk ourselves out of this?"

"Uh, Clefairy? I'm sorry I touched your Moon Stone. I didn't know it was yours."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Prepare for Trouble!"

"Make it Double!"

"Let's end it there. Let's give the author a break. Every time we say our motto, it takes for time, space, and labor for the author! It takes like 10 lines, so let's just leave it at this!"

"All right, twerps. Hand over those Clefairys!"

"No way! They're not even ours!"

"Then we'll take it if you don't mind."

"Well, we do mind! You're asking for a fight!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You don't have any Pokemon fit to fight!"

"Well, we have this."

Chris tightened his fist and ran over to Jessie and James and gave them a Double Punch, giving James a bloody nose and Jessie a black eye.

"What? How dare you put a black eye on my pretty face! You'll pay for this! Seviper, Go! Use your Poison Sting!"

Then, the Clefairys started attacking Team Rocket with Doubleslap and finished off with a Metronome, which turned into a Fire Blast.

"Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again and again and again and again and again!

It was getting too late that they pitched their tents there and slept with the Clefairys. However, they started for Cerulean City early in the morning.

The Clefairy started gathering around Chris and Anne and they gave them something. They saw a Moon Stone and a baby Cleffa.

Chris looked at the shining Moon Stone and said, "I'll take the Moon Stone."

Anne happily said, "Then I'll take the Cleffa!"

Anne ran over and took the Cleffa in the arms, cuddling it. Cleffa smiled and gave Anne a hug as well.

"Thanks, Clefairy! Hope to see you again!"

The Clefairys followed Chris and Anne until they got to the end of Mount Moon. They departed there and Chris and Anne started heading towards Cerulean City.

"Phooey. I just came back from where I started. Well, you want to win a badge, don't ya Chris?

"Yup. After I heal my Pokemon, I'm going to challenge the gym leader."

"OK! Let's go see my aunt Misty, then!"

"Let's go!"

I was kind of thinking about the storyline and listening to the reviews, I might start changing the storyline little by little from just getting badges to some more adventure that I was going to put way later, but I guess it's kind of obvious, I'll just get to what I was meaning to do now. So everyone just hold tight on to your seats and PLZ R&R!!!!!!
