Chapter 9
Chris and Anne entered Cerulean City and saw the whole city covered with Rockets.
"What the hell?" Ash looked around and saw the Cerulean City Gym closed.
Anne looked confused as well and looked clueless until she saw a red-haired girl in a blue cloak walking into a Pokemon Center.
"That's my aunt Misty! No doubt about it!"
They went after her when the Pokemon Center exploded in to pieces right in front of their eyes. Then as if things had worked like it was planned. Following the explosion, Rockets attacked Cerulean city from all 4 areas trapping them. Then a blue cloaked girl came and said, "Anne, watch and learn."
Then as soon as she said it, a blizzard came out from the blue. Stunned, the rockets started firing at Chris, Anne, and the red-haired girl.
Then the red-haired girl created a barrier around them, protecting them. Then she used some kind of spell that blasted everything 100 yards within them.
Chris and Anne rubbed their eyes and everything outside was frozen. The red cloaked girl smiled and said, "You guys should warm up."
It was night and they were drinking hot chocolate. Misty turned out to be very good-natured and she was awfully pretty and had a good body. She told him what she knew about Richie. She talked about the fight in the Indigo League Top 16 where Ash lost to Richie because of his Charizard. Then she told them her story about her journey. They started talking from sunset and talked till past midnight. She had just finished her Kanto, Orange, and Johto journeys with Ash. Then she talked about how she spent the next few years by herself training.
After she finished talking, she took a good look at Chris and said, "Chris, you'd really be good with a sword. Maybe the kind of sword Ash uses."
Then she disappeared for a moment and went down to some kind of basement where the Cerulean City gym used to be. Then she came back with a long sword with a black sheath.
"Chris, take this. This was Ash's first sword. He gave it to me before we parted. It's long, light, and powerful so it's a pretty good sword. Use it well."
Chris cautiously took the sword and gave it a few waves. It was light and easy to swing, but it had some kind of a special power inside it that gave Chris the shivers. Then Chris took it silently. It was two in the morning and Anne was already asleep.
Misty was slowly falling asleep when she suddenly woke up.
"Misty?"
Misty looked around and shushed Chris. Then she fingered Chris and Anne to hide somewhere. Then putting out the fire, Misty hid herself. Chris looked around from behind the bushes. They heard light footsteps and they saw Master Koga, a part of the Elite Four. Chris was shocked and could feel Misty moving in cautiously. Then Koga said, "Mistaria, come out."
Right at that moment, Misty popped out from the bushes and threw ice daggers at Koga, but Koga dodged them quickly. Then he threw poison darts at Misty, but Misty dodged them, too. Then Misty made a dozen more ice daggers and threw them in a single file. Then Koga dodged most of them, but the last three hit him.
"Urgh!!! I see your skills are the usual, Mistaria. But see if you can dodge this!"
Koga threw something at Misty, but they couldn't see where it was. Then it suddenly hit Misty.
"Ahh!!!"
Sensing danger, Chris leaped out and started slashing at Koga. Koga sensed this and started dodging, but Chris's arms moved as if he knew how to use a sword. Finally, he landed a blow on Koga's stomach. Koga flinched and fell over, coughing up some blood. Then he slowly got up and started jumping away, tree to tree. Chris heaved a huge sigh as he saw Koga leaving.
"Chris, that was really good. You have to be pretty skilled to wound Elite Koga."
Chris grinned, but seconds later they could see more figures in black, no doubt Team Rocket. Chris grabbed Misty and jumped towards the bushes and saw Team Rocket throw Pokeballs everywhere. There were bunches of Weezings put together. Then, a number of voices yelled, "Weezing, Explosion."
Then there was a big light with the Weezings getting ready to explode. Then Chris and Misty ducked for cover, but there were too many Weezings that Misty, Chris and Anne were all blasted to different directions.
Chris slowly opened his eyes and felt that he was on a rocky surface. Covered in blood, the only thing he had left with him was a Pokeball containing Pichu and the sword Misty had given him. Then suffering in pain, Chris blacked out once more.
To Readers: Uh. . . looking at some of the reviews, I noticed that the way I'm taking this story, it's probably the same with the original Pokemon and what you can watch on TV, yatta yatta yatta . . . So I decided to just use this thing as a Prologue and I'm gonna use this story as the background for the next story, 'The Fading Wind'. PLZ read my new story and PLZ review!!!
