Chapter: 3 Cerulean City
(3 weeks later)
"Watch out mom, there could be some wild Pokemon in Cerulean City."
"Don't worry honey, I have a gun for myself. Good thing I stole it from the dead police man." responded Deven's mom, as if he just had said the stupidest thing.
"I know, but sill do you think it was right to take that gun and rations from the police man. He had been killed by a Moltres, which is the only way he could've gotten 4-degree burns, right?"
"I do know that it was a good idea to take the rations, otherwise we would be dead by now, and it has been 3 weeks already." Deven's mom said to him.
"I know, I know luckily we are about to reach Cerulean City." said Deven as they crept along.
As they entered Cerulean City, they noticed that there was blood everywhere. Human bodies were on the floor bleeding, other weaker Pokemon were on the floor dead.
"H-h-h-help. Help me!" shouted a dying voice.
Deven and his mom ran as fast as they could towards the voice. They stopped when they neared a body missing an arm, and a leg.
"What happened?" asked Deven.
"N-n-n-new, Pok-pok-pokemon are, trying to…"
"Trying to do what?"
"Get to the c-c-core of the city…the core is in…"
"Where is the core?" shouted Deven. It was useless to shout though, the man had died.
"Jimmy Urgson" said Deven's mom.
"What?"
"Jimmy Urgson, that was his name, he was a good friend of mine in college, he had always wanted to be scientist. Looks like he got what he wanted, judging by his big white cloak." explained Deven's mom.
"Oh…that makes sense. Wait, what is that? Look to the left, there is a cave with a guard near it. The guard is still alive, maybe, just maybe, that is the military base."
"You know what Deven, I think you are right. Let's go!"
As Deven and his mom crossed the bridge to the other side. He remembers something that he had read. He remembered that the only way to get the cave was to surf. A young man, Ash, had done that. He had seen the legendary Mewtwo Pokemon in that cave.
"Mom, there is a problem, to get to the cave we have to swim across the current." said Deven.
"Ok, what is your point; you know how to swim…"
"No, the problem is that the current is very strong. The only way to cross is by Pokemon." explained Deven.
"Oh that's no problem."
Deven sighed, and ran towards the grassy region.
"HEY GUARD! WE WERE SENT HERE BY PROF BIRCH!" screamed Deven.
The guard turned around pressed a button and some sort of levitating device came out of nowhere.
"Please step on the robot." said the guard through the robot's speakers.
Deven and his mom stepped onto the floating metal plate. The second they stepped on the floating metal plate started moving them towards the cave.
