C26: Okay, I know I left last chapter on a cliff-hanger but just to piss you off its time for a flashback explanatory chapter!

Also, anyone who reads this, PLEASE god can you convince more people to R+R, I want more reviews. Go on forums, tell friends, I don't care how you do just please do it and I will be forever grateful

I didn't really like this chapter, I wrote two versions and this was the better one (just imagine how the other one was) but anyway big revelations here

Chapter 6: proposition

Thirty minutes earlier

Bruno

I couldn't move, but then I told myself, hopefully if I didn't harm it, it wouldn't harm me. The Golbat closed in on me, in for the kill, screw my plan, I took the biggest risk of a lifetime, and flung myself off the rope to the end of the gap. As I flew through the air in the ten seconds I had, I prayed to god that I'd flushed the drugs two months ago!

I let out a great sigh of relief when my hand clasped the metal girder hanging from the edge. The Golbat swerved for me, I drew my gun, still clinging on, I fired two magnum shots at its face. The Golbat spun away in the pit, falling its way to death at the bottom.

Feeling proud with myself, I heaved myself onto the edge, not pausing for breath, I made for the door.

But I was stopped instantly. I felt a sudden prick in my chest, as if something had punctured by a needle. Looking down I realised my mind was on the right track, I yanked out a tranquiliser dart before I collapsed to the floor, devoid of energy.

Before I blacked out from lack of energy I noticed a figure step out from the shadows holstering the gun that had so easily brought my to my knees. The substance started messing with my vision; I couldn't focus in the darkness.

"It won't do much" the figure stated, I recognised that voice, the smug tone of it. But it couldn't be.

"It paralyses you, but that's all"

"Who are you…" it took me a while to mouth out the syllables but I eventually found I still had the ability to speak.

Then he stepped out into the light.

"No" I muttered "It can't be!" but it was, I'd seen him impaled on a colossal spoon not even one hour ago, but here he was standing right in front of me. Even after death, Gary was still the same.

"I thought it would be better if Lance, Loreli and Koga weren't screwing things up" he said bluntly, I was confused, did this mean he was working for someone else, if so who?

"What…the fuck…do you want?" I struggled to say, but Gary just smirked.

"Don't kiss your mother with that mouth Bruno, or should I say, what's left of her" what was this?

"What do you mean?" I asked, fearing what the answer would be, but Gary just threw down a photograph into my line of sight, the photo horrified me. My daughter's face terribly scratched beyond all recognition, nearby intruders sexually abusing my darling wife sickened me, why would he do this? Trying to take my attention away from the image I noticed the word at the bottom written in blood.

REGARDS

"Your lovely wife and kids I presume" he drawled evilly.

"YOU SICK FUCK!" I yelled, the paralysis was beginning to wear off now thanks to my outburst fury.

"Now, now Bruno" his sarcasm didn't help "you don't want them to die do you, if not, you'd better do as I tell you or you will never see your beloved family again"

Resigned to my fate, knowing I had no other choice I sighed and asked the fatal question "What do I have to do?" I didn't like it, but I had no choice…

Ash

There were shelves covering the walls completely filled with poke balls. I stepped confidently towards the prof's desk. There were just two things on it. A note and a strange new version of a pokedex. I read the note.

M will rise soon, bringing the new form of P with it. I want you to take this new invention to Cinnabar Island and try to identify M. If the worst comes to the worst, the code 1,5,9,7 on the dex will produce a laser that is harmful to it.
Once identified, M should transport you to its home. An alternative universe to Kanto. Once there plant the dex in the nearest cave, press V, 6, I, 1, 2 and get ready to run.

I will see you in the labs later.

Prof Oak

Silph top researcher

Harmless old blighter, or dangerous professor of Silph co. it was obvious to me which route he'd chosen. The pokedex showed me an array of buttons quite unlike that of a standard issue. The buttons were covered with alien symbols. Knowing that I could examine it when I reach a safe place I pocketed it.

As I turned to go a last surprise was lying wait for making my day even better. I was suddenly grabbed from behind me by unseen vines.

It was a Bulbasaur, using its vines from the bulb on its back to try and choke me to death. This was no ordinary Bulbasaur though. Like the Rattata, it had two heads growing out at weird angles.

Desperate as I was, I tried to edge my hands towards my gun, eventually; I upholstered it and shot one of its vines, tearing it in half. The mon yelled, letting go of the other vine's hold. I took a great gasp of breath before firing at the bulb on its back a few times. With the blood still spurting, the Mon screeched eerily and collapsed to the floor in a pool of blood.

I heaved a sigh of relief. But I didn't have much time to as next the poke balls on the shelves all began to open, releasing their deadly plague of monsters. I looked on in horror, seeing an entire army form in a matter of minutes.

Acting with only seconds to think I dashed out of the lab receiving numerous scratches from the still growing army. Out of the lab, over to my house, I quickly leapt through the door and slammed it shut behind me.

Peering through the letterbox I could see the Pokemon massing outside to make an attempt to break in. I was pleased with my ingenuity for now, but I needed to barricade the place. I was about to do so, but as I got up I felt the barrel of a gun pointed at the back of my neck….

C26: Right, next chapter you're gonna get the end of the cliff-hanger, but in the meantime please get me more reviews!
