Chapter four: Mt. Moon madness.
Disclaimer: I don't own pokemon.
Hey im back again with another chapter. This one is going to be interesting a lot of surprises.
We come back to our adventure to see everyone's favorite heroes taking a lunch break. "So Azumi you a coordinator what's the difference between that and battling?" Scrap asked as he dug into a turkey sandwich.
"It's kind of the same but instead of trying to take the direct route of knocking out you opponent's pokemon you try to do it in style, by using the most style in your combos and moves." Azumi explained. "Then if you win a competition you get that competition's ribbons and once you get enough ribbons you get to go to the kanto grand festival." Azumi explained. " Oh yes there's also other competitions like in Hoen and Johto I heard there even starting to get organized in Coro." Azumi explained.
"That's awesome." Scrap said in excitement.
"Excuse me would you three happen to be trainers?" Two figures asked one a male around 38 and the other a female around 12. The girl had long red hair and blue eyes she was wearing a white and red tee shirt with a pokemon symbol. She was also wearing blue jeans and blue shoes. She stood partially behind the man who looked like he could have been her father. The male stood at 6-1 and he was wearing an archeological uniform. He had messy blond hair and blue eyes and behind him were a golem and Machamp carrying equipment and rocks. "Hi the name is Alex Whitestone and this is my daughter Ruby." He said as he pointed to Ruby. "Im an archeologist slash ex trainer, and Ruby is going to soon start her journey." Alex explained.
"Hi." Ruby said blushing.
"Hi." Scrap said waving. "Yes we're trainers Mr. Whitestone." Scrap said grinning.
"That's great because I need your help, its seems as if you three are going to go through Mt. Moon so that makes it even better." Alex said as he started to think.
"Excuse me what are you talking about?" Rose asked a little uppity.
"Oh im horribly sorry my dear, a horrible group name team rocket has scared off all the archeologist and Rose and myself don't have enough strength to drive them all off." Alex explained.
"Okay I got it you need our help." Azumi said smiling.
"Yeah." Ruby said blushing but warming up to our heroes.
"Ok then and stop being so nervous we don't bite." Azumi said showing a kind smile.
"I'll try." Ruby said a little embarrassed.
"Let's go!" Scrap shouted pointing his finger to the mountain.
"That sounds good." Alex said as he withdrew his Machamp and his Golem. The newly formed rescue group marched to the entrance of Mt. Moon; they ignored a salesman that was trying to give them a magikarp. When they walked into the cave Scrap fell back in amazement the cave was huge. Pokemon were every where Oddish were seeking small water spouts Zubat were sleeping and clefairy were dancing. "Kids go take some time training; I'll look for the Rockets." Alex said as he walked off Ruby going to follow him but stopping when she saw the Oddish. "Those are so cute." Ruby said with glee.
"Catch it." Scrap said as he handed her a pokeball.
"Alright." Ruby said as she threw the pokeball containing her pokemon. A small fox like pokemon appeared in the flash and let out a little growl. Scrap turned on his pokedex. Vulpix the fox pokemon, when this pokemon is born it has a single tail, when it gets older its tail splits.
"Alright Vulpix use ember!" Ruby shouted. Vulpix charged at Oddish and used an ember attack, the small pokemon's leaf set ablaze causing the little guy to faint. "Go pokeball." Ruby shouted as she threw the small red and white ball at the grass pokemon. The ball started to shake but eventually stopped a large ping signaling that the catch was successful.
"Yay!" Ruby shouted throwing her hands out in a victory sign.
"Good job." Azumi said. A while later a few shrieks were heard. Azumi and Scrap ran ahead the rest. When they rounded the corner they saw a Geodude bullying a small clefairy. It let out a growl and used a mega punch the small pokemon flew into the west side wall. Scrap pointed his pokeball at Clefairy. Clefairy the fairy pokemon. This pokemon's appearance makes it a popular pet, but it is very hard to find.
"Hey you big bully leave it alone!" Azumi shouted getting ready for a battle. Azumi ran in front of Clefairy Geodude let out a punch hitting Azumi. Clefairy frowned angrily it ran at Geodude waving its finger a wave of water shot from its hand knocking the rock pokemon out instantly. "What was that?" Scrap asked amazed.
"That my hard headed friend is a metronome attack." Azumi explained laughing the small fairy pokemon dancing around and chanting. Clefairy walked over to Azumi and nudged on her shirt. "Yes my little friend?" Azumi asked smiling. Clefairy jumped around shouting trying to say something. "The answers yes." Azumi said taking out a pokeball and catching Clefairy. Scrap was bent down next to the fallen Geodude. "Hm what's this?" Scrap asked himself as he pulled a small black chip off the rock pokemon. Scrap pulled out a pokeball and tapped Geodude with it. "I don't think it knew what it was doing I found this chip on it." Scrap said as he put the pokeball to his belt. Rose finally ran up with Ruby. " Guys guess what I was chasing a Zubat which she caught when Ruby and myself tripped down a hill, then at the bottom of the hill we found a group of Rockets with whips attacking some clefairys Zubat, Geodudes, paras and even two gravellers." Rose explained.
"Then they put these two chips on the Gravelers, and then the Gravelers had an evil look on their faces. That's when the two pokemon started to attack all the others, the rockets drove the poor pokemon to a wall, the pokemon started to punch the large rock wall until it collapsed revealing a fossil of this huge phoenix looking pokemon." Ruby explained.
"Let's go then we have to stop the Rockets." Scrap said. The group followed the route Rose and Ruby took until they reached the top of the hill that Rose fell down. "Oh my god." Scrap and Azumi said in unison as they looked down from their spot. What they saw was horrible. Smoke was coming out from the millions of machines and building many Gravelers, sandslashes and even some Golem were unleashing their strongest attacks at the rock walls surrounding the mysterious phoenix looking skeletons. "What is that?" Scrap asked in horror as he watched the rockets whip the poor pokemon.
"I think I know, there is rumored to be a legendary pokemon named Moltres. Few of them exists many died and became fossils like this one here and others are in hiding at their natural habitats of volcanoes. They are one of the three legendary pokemon, there is the flame pokemon Moltres, the electric pokemon Zapdos and finally the freeze pokemon Articuno." Ruby said as she took a deep breath. "My daddy's friend Blaine was telling us about this new invention on his island that brings back dead or extinct pokemon." Ruby added.
"So the most logical answer is that they are going to revive our fossil friend here." Rose said.
"That's not going to be good." Scrap said as he remembered something from his past. "There is a machine that increases the amount of rage a pokemon has so if they use it on Moltres or any of the other birds they can use the bird's powers to take over the world." Scrap said as he pulled out a pokeball. "Im stopping them." Scrap said as he ran down throwing out 4 pokeballs all his pokemon coming out. "Scrap you idiot wait." Azumi said as Rose, Ruby and herself ran down throwing their own pokeballs. "Vulpix use ember!" Ruby shouted as Vulpix shot out a few small balls of fire at a nearby controlled Sandslash. "Geodude throw Aron, Aron use defense curl!" Scrap shouted. Geodude who was now healed by a potion grabbed Aron who was curled up in a ball and threw it at a Graveler. Aron hit Graveler throwing the large pokemon off balance. "Alright Poliwhirl use water gun!" Scrap shouted Poliwhirl shot out an icy blast of water at the pokemon knocking it out.
"Ralts physic, Houndour protect it." Azumi commanded. Ralts stood still and started to concentrate a blue aura surrounded it. Houndour stood in front of Ralts shooting a blast of fire at any pokemon that would get close enough.
"Corsola, Ponyta make a distraction use fire spin and bubble." Rose shouted. Corsola shot bubbles at the pokemon while Ponyta ran around the rockets unleashing a fiery tornado. The rockets started to give up many of them took off that was until Vicky, Jack and another hulking figure floated down on a balloon. "These are the wimps you two keep loosing to?" The figure shouted. The two nodded pathetically. The figure jumped down in front of Scrap. "Ello wimp, the name is Alister and im the leader of the fossil retrieval team. So get ready to battle!" Alister shouted as he threw a hyper ball onto the gap between Scrap and himself. A large bulking bull appeared in the flash of red light letting out a roar. "That thing is huge!" Scrap said in amazement. He pointed at the bull in almost fear. Tauros the wild bull pokemon, this pokemon is not satisfied unless it is rampaging at all times, if there are no opponents for Tauros to battle it will tackle large trees.
"Alright Aron go!" Scrap shouted. "Use harden then tackle!" Scrap shouted. Aron growled its plaiting getting a little shinier it then charged at full speed into Tauros. Tauros let out a large moan and then used its own tackle attack blasting Aron into the fossil. Scrap ran over to Aron and tried to return it to its pokeball but Aron rolled out of the way. "You want to fight?" Scrap said healing it with a super potion. Aron nodded and got into position to fight. "Alright Aron use growl then metal claw!" Scrap shouted. Aron growled cutely making Tauros lower its guard. When Aron saw this it ran towards the bull its claw surrounded in silver light. Aron hit it right in the face. Tauros fell to the ground and struggled to get back up. It then started to charge right at Aron when a large green boulder flew down from the hill knocking Tauros out cold. The boulder popped up revealing it to be a Golem. Alex was then seen running down the hill his Machamp. Alister saw Alex and ran but not without the fossil. While the group was filling in Alex Alister and the other Rockets flew away in a giant blimp the fossil hanging onto it. "Give it back!" Rose shouted throwing a pokeball a brown Zubat coming out of it. "Zubat use supersonic." Rose shouted. Zubat flew up and let out a huge screech. The balloon started to shift uneasily and crashed into a ledge. The balloon shot into the distance the fossil falling into a lake at the end of the mountain. "I guess im just going to have to try to find another fossil." Alex said frowning.
"Look at the bright sides if the Rockets got the fossil it could have caused the end of the world, but now unless they find another one, they can't get Moltres." Scrap said grinning. "That's true I shouldn't put my selfish wants in front of the safety of others." Alex said disappointed. "Hey no worries good things happened we all caught pokemon and we are almost too Cerulean city." Scrap said as the group walked out of the cave their eyes squinting in the sudden sunlight.
"Well this is we have to take our own paths." Alex said grinning.
"Alright good bye guys." Scrap and his friends said in unison Azumi with tears in her eyes. Alex and Ruby took one path down to Vermillion while our group took the rode down to cerulean. "So now for my gym badge?" Scrap asked. "No first we have to go see Bill and then on Friday I have a contest." Azumi explained. "But I want to battle." Scrap said frowning.
"To bad!" Rose shouted hitting Scrap in the head.
Kind of short but I wanted to get it done, I also ran out of ideas for Mt. moon. I have a block and I need inspiration so im going to watch some old episodes and such.
