"It hatched, Elm. It's a Togepi!"
"Please come show me now!"
Suddenly, Crystal barged into the door. "We gotta get Kamon! I just remembered!"
"We
can't show you right now."
"What!"
"We don't have enough time. Look, the Totodile's trainer, Kamon, is being stalked by Team Rocket. I don't know why, but I know we're in serious trouble. Do you think we should tell Mom and Dad about Team Rocket?"
"No. Keep it a secret. But I'll let you know of any information leaked," stressed Elm.
"You're right. The less they know, the better. Those guys are bad news," emphasized Duncan. "Now let's get going! We gotta get Kamon!"
"Let's go to Bill's house. Maybe he'll help us."
They exit the Center, and followed the directions to Bill's house. Duncan knocked on the door.
A young man answered it. "Bill!"
"Duncan and Crystal! Your cousins told me all about you!"
"You know them?" asked Crystal.
"Yes, I do! I met them at my Kanto home."
"Look, we need help," said Duncan.
"Anything."
"Do you know Kamon Stelldox?"
"Yeah, he's a neighbor of mine."
"Could you please take us to him? It's an emergency," stressed Crystal.
Kamon played Mario Kart DS on his Nintendo DS until he heard a knock on the door. A young man with brick-red hair, and gray eyes. May had left for summer camp while Uncle Norman and Aunt Gloria left for work. He was all alone and scared. He opened the door shakily, and was relieved to see that it was only Bill, the creator of the Pokémon Storage System. Beside Bill were Duncan and Crystal! "Bill? What are you doing here? Hey! It's you two!"
"Kamon,
you've gotta get out of here!" exclaimed Duncan.
"Why?"
"Because Team Rocket's coming after you! They know where you live," emphasized Crystal.
"I don't believe any of that. Axel, Croc, and I are safe."
Duncan then pulled out a videotape.
"Dunc, where'd you get that?" asked Crystal.
"While I was saving you, I found the video camera being filmed of you and Team Rocket. So I brought it here as proof that they're gonna get you, Kamon!"
Kamon gruffly said, "Let's watch it and see if you're lying."
In Kamon's bedroom, they watched the tape on the TV.
"...we're going after someone you know: Kamon Stelldox!"
"That's me!" he exclaimed. "Axel, we're not safe anymore! We gotta hide!"
"I told you so," said Duncan, exasperated. "And they'll complete their goal if-"
The front door was knocked down. Three people came in. "Alright, Tabitha and Courtney, let's see which room is Kamon's," were the voices they heard.
"Quick, guys! Hide!" exclaimed Bill.
Kamon then quickly ducked out of sight under the bed. Duncan and Crystal hid in the closet. Bill came into the living room. He acted natural, and casual, as he inquired, "Say, what are you doing here?"
There were two women and one man. One woman was a redhead, while the other had short, black hair. The male was a muscular man with a mullet.
"We're not telling you," said the redhead. "That's not your concern, buddy!"
"Excuse me, but weren't you looking for someone?" asked Bill.
"Yeah, dude. We're looking for a kid living here-" the man said, but was interrupted.
"Don't tell him that," whispered the redhead.
"A-ha! You are here for kidnapping! Well, I'm afraid he's not here right now. He probably started his journey, like lots of kids."
"Nice try, kid," said the black-haired woman, "But I'm pretty sure his uncle didn't sign him up for anything."
"Say," inquired Bill to the black-haired woman. "You look like Agatha's granddaughter. You know, she retired this year. I don't know what she plans to do during her retirement..."
"What's going on?" asked Crystal.
"I don't know, but we're all in serious trouble," said Duncan.
"We've got to escape," said Crystal.
Kamon wrote up a note saying, "Dear Uncle Norman. I have left this house to escape from Team Rocket. Far away. Please call me. I'll tell you where. Sincerely, Kamon." He then put the note on the bed, quickly grabbed a vest to put on over his gray shirt, put on his black sneakers, packed his laptop, cell phone, and other belongings into a case, put it in his backpack, and opened up the window.
"Axel, claw through the window screen!" The Persian then scratched through the window screen, and Kamon climbed out of it. "Come on, Axel, let's ditch this place before they find us!" The cat then jumped out, along with Duncan and Crystal.
"Kamon, I want you to stay out of anything that could harm you, and please stay... with me..." said Crystal, embracing him, and staring right at him.
"Love later, guys! We gotta flee!"
"Get in my car! We'll be able to escape quicker!"
A few minutes later, they drove off, while the would-be kidnappers left the house. "Well, he's not there, either, dad. But we've got Bill."
Conner answered Becky, "Well, then just track down his license plate. He may have driven off somewhere. And bring Bill with you. We don't anyone to reveal our plan."
"OK! He just drove off, and is headed to National Park. We got him right where we want him!"
The three trainers, along with Kamon's Persian, were driving the Speed Limit to get away from the kidnappers. "I just hope they don't catch up to us!" exclaimed Kamon in fear.
"Fufushaa!" Axel cried out in agreement. They were indeed driving towards the park.
