Chapter 8: Chaos, the ingredient to fun.

"Can't you see it's afraid?" Ditto asked Mech-Ah.

"Not really… but I do see it is bound to wet the couch."

"What are you going to do with me?" The Shinx asked.

"If it's up to him, you would be dead soon. But if I could say something… we just ask you what you're doing here."

"Let's give it your way Ditto, and if he is a dangerous thing I call kill it." Mech-Ah suggested.

"Why are you here then?" Ditto asked.

"I don't know… I just ate some food for the Pokémon and then this happened. I was in the forest…"

"That explains everything; this means that the Plotting Device is active… TO THE MALL!" Mech-Ah shouted.

"It's freaking midnight, you can't go to the mall. We have to wait till tomorrow." Diglett said.

"But that means that… oh my god… they already started…" Ditto exclaimed.

"Not really… it means that they are testing… or worse…" Mech-Ah said.

"Or it means he/she had a bad lunch." Diglett said.

The night was filled with questions. But Alice and Jones were upstairs with the Eevee's, sleeping. Diglett however… met something he will never forget…

"WHAT THE (…) ARE YOU?" Diglett yelled at a large screwdriver.

He got screwed into the ground, waking up from his dream. He found himself in the middle of a forest, with a few bushes and a little syringe. This item was labeled "Enhancer", though this didn't make any sense. Diglett pushed the syringe with him, before finding a house. A man walked to the door, knocking on it. The door opened slowly, only a hand came out. What appeared to be a vial was handed to it. The man ran back into the bushes, were a bright flash emerged. Diglett approached the spot, yet only scorched earth was there. No ash just blackened grass. The image was odd, especially since there were footprints near it. It deemed the impression of a crater, but Diglett turn around to the building. The house looked old, and would make you think it was empty; yet small lights shined through the windows. Diglett got on a bench, and peeked through the window.

Inside scientists were handling odd materials, mixing some together. One of them revealed a vial, similar to the one Diglett saw.

"Here it is. The spiritual enhancing liquid." He spoke. "We expect that it can change memories of humans and create instinct."

He walked to a small safe, unlocked it and placed the vial inside. Diglett turned around and pushed the syringe with him to another house, where he lived. He dug under the door, to the living room, and observed Mech-Ah and Ditto talking to a Shinx.

"Look what I found. I found it somewhere in the forest. I don't know how I got there, though." He said to the three.

Mech-Ah grabbed casing of the syringe, and poured some of it on his wrist. On his wrist, a flat surface appeared which showed a line of light moving over it. After a short while, he grabbed the casing and put it on the table.

"This is a substance used by the Creator to create instinct." He explained. "It is a simple mixture, but powerful enough to change someone. If applied on something, the matching memories are applied. With this… you can brainwash someone or… make a human a Pokémon in mind."

"Sounds bad, want to see where I found it?" Diglett asked.

"Hm… Ditto, can you handle the… eh… Pokémorph guy?"

"Sure… like I really want to miss the Comedy Marathon." Ditto said.

"Okay, see you whenever I am back."

Mech-Ah and Diglett left, Ditto sighing and looked at the Shinx.

"I wonder why I even bother with this!" Ditto shouted.

"Because they are your friends?" The Shinx asked.

"No… why don't you go upstairs to some other Pokémorphed people, so I can watch the marathon."

"Why are you acting so mad?"

"I am hardened by life. I learned people can't say thanks without being saved from death."

"Why don't I help you get over that? Life can be good, just look the right way."

"Currently the right way is the TV, a machine that gives me a minor reason to live. Another is that my ex-owner and my ex-owners girlfriend are morphed and they need me. And because I expect to get a good job." Ditto turned on the TV, and switched channel.

"No really! I CAN help you get happy!" The Shinx said with joy.

"One chance, fail; you dead. And tell me why you suddenly became so happy?"

"I realized that I need to be happy to get on with life."

Mech-Ah and Diglett observed the house… while playing blackjack.

"Hit me!" Diglett said.

"You already have 21! You win when you HAVE 21. Get over 21 and you lose. If I am closer to 21 then you, I win. If you have 20, and I have 18, you win." Mech-Ah explained. "When are we going to look at the crater and the house?"

"When I win. I want money!"

"YOU'RE A POKEMON! YOU DO NOT NEED MONEY! BTW we aren't betting anything."

"Okay… let's go then!"

They reached the scorched patch of grass, which Mech-Ah observed closely.

"Hm…" He looked carefully and grabbed some of the soil. "This is blackening applied by electronics, not fire. Did you see a flash or anything? A spark, lightning?"

"Yes, a bright flash. It was only for a split-second." Diglett explained.

Mech-Ah started thinking, and then came with the solution.

"Someone either teleported or… something got hit by lightning."

They walked to the house, the backdoor to be correct. They peeked through a tiny hole, seeing the man in lab coats mess around. Mech-Ah opened the backdoor and walked through, changing on the way into a scientist.

"You can change shape?" Diglett said curious.

"Sure, I am a Project."

Mech-Ah walked through the busy halls, reaching the stairs. He walked to the next floor, where all doors were old and damaged; only one was in good shape. "Private" a sign said above the door. Mech-Ah opened the door a little, and peered through the opening. A guard was inside, with some odd sort of Pokéball.

"Who's there?" The guard asked to whoever was behind the door.

"Just me." Mech-Ah responded.

"Is the mixture ready?"

"Which one?"

"The full TF potion."

Mech-Ah came in, generated a syringe in his pocket, and showed it. The guard grabbed the Pokéball and threw it on the ground; and a man came out. He was undressed, only a pair of underwear was on him. He was chained at both hands and legs, giving an odd impression. Mech-Ah applied the serum inside the syringe, and then stepped back.

"You can go now." The guard ordered.

Mech-Ah however didn't leave just yet; instead, he transformed back into his real self and pressed the guard against the wall. In the struggle the man knew he had no chance, but this was confirmed when Mech-Ah twisted his neck.

The bang of the crashing man made a noise below, on which several scientists grabbed arms. Mech-Ah grabbed the victim, and jumped out of the window. The wouldn't save him, the loud shock of his armor crashing made the people inside aware, forcing them to go outside.

"Diglett, get the heck out of this place!" Mech-Ah shouted at the thing, who was staring at the moon.

Their escape was fast and managed to avoid the crowd with ease.

"Who is that?" Diglett asked.

"I don't know… but he will soon forget all that he knows."

"What?"

"I applied a serum that would change both body and mind into a Pokémon. Whatever they did inside should now be pushed back."

"You didn't break anything!"

Mech-Ah grabbed a little detonator, and a large sound blast rushed past them.

"I don't see anything made of glass survive this." Mech-Ah smiled as they continued their way home, leaving the chained character behind.

Ditto however… was both observing the TV, as well as listening to the Shinx.

"I really don't get you." Ditto said. "Just go upstairs, it's… three AM, you better go to bed. And leave me alone…"

"If I really can't help you, I give up."

The Shinx tried to get up, but he didn't walk much lately, as he sat for most of him time as a Pokémon.

"Keep trying… just keep trying…" Ditto said to him.

The door flew open, making the Pokémon upstairs wake up and made Ditto fall from his seat. Mech-Ah stood in the doorway glancing into the distance, Diglett caught up and said:

"He just wanted to be dramatic." Diglett explained while panting.

Then Alice and Jones rushed down from the stairs, running over the Shinx.

"What's happening?" Alice asked looking around quickly.

"Is someone here for the Eevee's?" Jones asked hasty.

"Nope, it's Mech-Ah with his randomness." Ditto laughed out.

"Randomness… you mean my spontaneous way of life?" Mech-Ah asked.

"Sort off…"

"For now… screw you guys, I need to look for stuff that explodes. Really, I need something to blow up the Plotting Device. Hm… Ditto, start a clinic for Pokémorphed people; they will soon rise in number."

The next day…

"Phew… I got the sign up. Now I need to start getting employees." Ditto looked with satisfaction at the sign, before going back inside. "Now I need customers…"

Upstairs…

"Why can't we go down mommy?" First asked.

"Well… it's hard to explain that to you at the moment…" Alice explained.

"I can explain!" Mech-Ah poked his head through the door. "Ditto is making a thing called rehabilitation clinic so people can live with the fact they are Pokémon… that's not so hard is it?" Mech-Ah vanished through the hole.

"I really, really hate that." Jones said. "Because we are going to get questions about why it's hard to be a Pokémon…"

"We better go down and tell Mech-Ah we don't want this anymore!" Alice suggested.

The two left the room and went downstairs; leaving the Eevee's alone…

"I want to go on adventure…" Speedy rushed.

"I don't think they would let us do that…" Spot said.

"Why don't we go to the forest? Somewhere with rocks to climb, mountains to scale and battle stuff." First suggested.

"…" Nameless replied.

"Let's go." One-Liner said.

"Do we NEED to go? I wanna stay and sleep." Negi said down.

"WE SHALL TRAVERSE THE MIGHTY BARRIERS OF LIFE, AND CONQUER THE LANDS OF THE UNKNOWN!" Mech-Ah said.

"Right… that makes sense…" Abacus said sarcastic. "We better go then, I expect our parents to get back soon!"

"… … … … …! … …, … … …? …." Nameless explained.

"I am staying with Nameless!" Negi said.

"…!? … … …! … … … … … …!!!"

"That's not nice…" Negi sat depressed in a corner.

"… … …! … … … …!"

"… …!" Abacus yelled.

"Now you're starting to?" First asked.

"Not exactly…"

The six Eevee's left, calling themselves the Super Six… which is a crappy name. But they are about a week old so that doesn't matter. They scaled mountains… two feet high mountains. Climbed spiked and jagged rocks… of a beach. They traversed the barrier of time… by breaking a clock. And more useless crap like that.

"We have been traveling for twenty minutes!" Mech-Ah said. "We must be miles from home!"

"We are about… a mile away from home." Abacus explained.

"I am the first to reach that really dangerous flow of magma!" First ran off to the very, really, extremely dangerous flow of lava/magma.

"He does know getting too close to something that hot would burn his fur off?" Abacus asked.

"No… I think he cares more for the race then for the safety of his life…" Mech-Ah explained.

"…! … … … … … …, …!" Nameless appeared next to the other five of SS.

"Don't you talk like that to us!"

"…! … … … … … … …, … … … … … … … … …! … … … … … … … … …! … … … … …!"

"WHAT? FIRST! STOP!" The Super Six/five shouted at the racing Eevee, but his nature of being the first stopped him from thinking rational.

"… … …, … … … … … …!"

"You're right. And if that's true… WE HAVE TO CALL… Philosophy man! The ultimate way of applying rational thought to the insane!" Mech-Ah explained.

Can Philosophy man save First? What the (…) is Nameless saying? Well… he just moves his lips… and says a high dose of coarse language, based on the fact people that cannot be understood are really good characters. What about the clinic? Will Ditto get enough visitors? And will Mech-Ah be told the truth? The he is indeed the biggest (…), (…) (…) in the world?

R&R please.
