The Disclaimer of REVOLUTION: Pokemon doesn't belong to me. Ackers, Terra, Rai, Vines, Gengar the character, Sailor, and Fearful belong to me. Now, I'm sorry, but I had an episode planned. It was TOTALLY irrelevant to what the storyline is SUPPOSED to be. So, I cut that one. Instead, I'm putting in the series that follows it. Sorry for the short notice! Here's a sneak peek at the series! And thanks to everyone who reviewed! Note: Center and Bold is game-style text.
Ackers: I don't know, Terra…
Terra: What… the frill?
Person: … Pikaween?
Other Person: Since then, my hand has been twitching occasionally…
Episode 14: The Encounter
One fine, sunny day in Viridian City, Terra was relaxing underneath a tree. Her Pokemon Master schedule was clear for the week and she needed a vacation. Omigosh was somewhere else, not watching her charge and hoping Ackers could handle the important job of guarding the Guardian from ultimate KISMET. All of her Pokemon except Ackers were at her house, watching TV or eating cookies. A couple of trainers were talking about something. Terra happened to overhear some of the conversation.
"It was really weird!" one said, "I just talked to that guy over there and he showed me how to catch a Weedle. Odd, but then I flew over to Cinnabar and surfed on the East coast. I got attacked by this weird… thing! I can't even describe it. It was weak as all hell, but when I looked in my backpack, there were… TONS of packages of Pokemon food! I only had one in there!"
"I know!" the other said, "What do you think it was?"
"I checked my Pokedex after because it certainly wasn't something I'd ever seen before and there was no new data… maybe it was some weird Tentacool…"
"What I saw didn't look like a Tentacool or any other Pokemon. It looked like this big ol' block of blocks shaped like a backwards L."
"That really describes what I saw, too…"
"Since then, my hand started twitching occasionally." The trainer's hand twitched.
"What should we call it?"
"Well… maybe we should go catch one and bring it to Professor Oak. He'll know. He knows stuff like that."
"Maybe it's that weird Pikablu thing…"
"No,
I heard Pikablu looks like a blue Pikachu. That thing did NOT look
like a blue Pikachu! It looked black and orange..."
"…
Pikaween?"
With this, the second trainer hit the first one on the head with a frying pan and walked off. At this point, Terra was insanely interested. Tons of Pokemon food instead of one, a Pokemon completely undiscovered, this was HER kind of adventure! Ackers, who was right behind her and invisible, didn't like his trainer's idea. "Terra," he said, "I… I don't think this idea is a good one…"
Terra turned to her psychic. "Come on, Ackers! What could POSSIBLY go wrong?"
Ackers thought for a minute, then said, "Your Pokedex could be eaten. Your PC could blow up. You could be forced to turn your back on your opponents. You could die. You could never write in cursive again. You could lose your unique signature. You could go blind. You could suffer from amnesia and never remember our adventures and start your Pokemon journey all over again, releasing all of your Pokemon in the process. You could die. The intricate balance of the Fusion World could be destroyed, sending our nice little home careening into some alternate universe. You could get Cosmo and Norm, who don't belong to the Author, to come here and perform their nice little duet thing, 'Gimme the Wand'. That doesn't belong to the Author, either. You could—"
"I think I get it, Ackers." Terra interrupted quickly. "There are the risks, but the wonder of whatever this is is insane!" Terra ran over to Ackers and put her arm around his shoulders. "Think of it, Ackers… what if this Pokemon can heal cancer or something? We'd be famous! We'd go down in history books! C'mon, my vacation won't be all that pleasant with knowledge that there's something at Cinnabar Island that could possibly save the world!"
Ackers thought some more. "… alright, Terra," he said, finally, "We'll go. Just… just be careful, okay? I don't want to deal with Omigosh. I HATE that insane Mew!"
So, Terra jumped off of the tree she was in, put her writing stuff in her backpack, and walked to the old guy. He looked at her with a cup of coffee and said, "Ah! Now, I've had my coffee and I feel MUCH better! Sure, you can go through! Are you in a hurry?" Terra shook her head. "I see you're using a Pokedex. When you catch a Pokemon, Pokedex is automatically updated. What? Don't you know how to catch Pokemon? I'll show you, then.
Wild WEEDLE appeared!
OLD MAN used POKEBALL!
Gotcha! WEEDLE was caught!
The old man looked at Terra and said, "First, you have to weaken the target Pokemon." Terra blinked. Ackers blinked. Terra blinked again. Ackers blinked again. Terra flew to Cinnabar Island.
Terra looked at the eastern coast of the island. Nothing out of the ordinary seemed there. Maybe they were lying… she thought. … but no one would think of a Pokemon made of blocks! Terra advanced the beach. Looking into the water, she sent out Sailor and jumped on the Dewgong. She directed the aquatic mammal along the coast of the island, surfing up and down, never going into deeper water. Then, they were attacked by something.
……………
Wild hjllj 'M heoan hdosks appeared!
Indeed, something attacked them. Neither Terra, Sailor, nor Ackers could tell what it was. It did look like a backwards L made of purple and black blocks.
Whatever it was, none of them knew what it was. Terra whispered, "What… the frill?" Ackers stared at the thing. His head suddenly started to ache, like someone took a hammer to the inside of it or something. Sailor was terrified. He swam away from the thing.
Got away safely!
After they're weird encounter, Terra's head was spinning with thoughts. What was that thing? Where did it come from? How did it get here? Why is it here? Can I catch it? Is it even a Pokemon? She recalled Sailor and got on the beach.
Ackers' head hurt a lot. Not from thoughts, but from something else. Everything was fine until that THING showed up. Now it was like he was being used as a jackhammer! Looking at his trainer, he said, "Terra… I don't feel so good…" And that was true; he had a monster head ache, he was hungry, he was scared, AND he felt like he was gonna throw up! Terra looked at the psychic. Slowly, his eyes drifted closed and he fell on the ground in a dead faint.
"Ackers?" Terra ran over to her favorite psychic and shook him, trying to get him awake. Noticing he was still breathing, Terra sighed a sigh of relief. "Let's hope nothing else happens... but what can be worse than that?" she muttered, recalling the psychic into his Pokeball and flying back to Pallet Town.
---Ooh, what's going on with Ackers? Will he be alright? And what about that… thing? All will be revealed in the next chapter!---
Terra: What do you mean?
Ackers: ... light... Light... Is this... is this light... Holy?
Gengar: Ackers, I don't know if you can hear me, but... I... I...
