Chapter 11- A Random Chapter Where Missingno Is Not Actually Random
Let's move back just a few moments.
In the same movement that sends Missingno flying, the Aerodactyl(?) rushes at Cassandra. She and Weedy jump out of the way, and turn around to figure out the next move. But it keeps moving, rushing toward the Jr. Trainer still facing the wall. As it approaches, his Sandshrew sees this as a pokemon battle and pops out of its pokeball. It is grabbed in mid-air and slammed into the wall, where it stops moving. The Aerodactyl(?) moves its jaws to take a bite out of the kid when Missingno's scream stops it.
He is on his feet, glaring at his opponent. He sends out a burst of power that shatters the chains, and steps forward. As he walks, he drags a wooden bat riddled with nails. He huffs with each step, and sneers as he approaches the Aerodactyl(?). It turns toward him as he swings. The bat connects, pushing it halfway across the gym. He then jumps through the air, yelling. He swings the bat down on its skull with a loud crack.
It looks up, unphased. Missingno screams even louder as he sends a barrage of wild blows, hitting everywhere on its body.
Amid the barrage, a bony hand reaches out. Its fingers lengthen, gripping around Missingno's throat. It holds him in the air, gasping for breath.
"Missingno! What are you doing?" Cassandra has watched with confusion. She has never seen him act like this before.
He answers in a raspy breath. "This… THING needs to die! I will avenge that Sandshrew."
"What are you talking about?" She looks over to the limp Sandshrew. "It just fainted, right?"
"No. It didn't use a pokemon move, just attacked. And now someone is dead. I will kill it. Kill it. Kill it! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL HIM!" He scratches at the fingers to no avail.
Cassandra watches Missingno's crazed struggles. His labored breathing, bared teeth, the look in his eyes.
That was it. She figures out what is confusing her. Missingno's eyes are missing its normal, crazy light. He wasn't laughing.
"Missingno!" She yells his name, and as he looks, his facial expression becomes blank. She holds up the bat. "What is with this? You trying to crack some… skulls?" She points to the Aerodactyl skeleton.
"..." Missingno stares at her quietly.
"M-Missingno?"
"Ah. haha. Hahahaha. HAHAHAHA! What was that?! HAHAHAHAHA."
The Aerodactyl(?) tilts its head.
"Oh, sorry about that. This time it's gonna be fun." Missingno melts, passing through its fingers. He falls into a puddle on the floor.
"Bro, that's nasty." Missingno leans against its side. It looks at him, and he winks.
He picks up his bat and smiles. The Aerodactyl(?) jumps back, putting up a defensive stance.
Cassandra looks at what she is holding. It changed into a taco.
Missingno looks at his bat. "What is with these nails?" He pulls out a hammer and removes them. He then pulls out a series of foot long spikes and glues them on. "There, much better."
He walks over to a wall and moves a rock out of the way. Behind it is a round hole with some points removed around it. The new bat fits in perfectly and he turns it, opening a new panel.
The panel scans his eye and opens a new panel.
He quickly enters a 27 digit password to open a new panel.
He pulls a book from the bookcase in the panel to open a new one.
And emits an ultrasonic sound to open the last panel.
Which holds a wooden bat with nails stuck in it.
He brandishes the weapon and smiles. He keeps it pointed at the Aerodactyl(?), but turns to Cassandra. "Better?"
She smiles back. "Unfortunately, yes."
