HELLO MY FANS AND READERS!

This is just stuff I feel like saying...

I HAVE 50 REVIEWS! THAT IS SOOOO AWESOME!

I have had ANOTHER fish die...his name was Yang, and he was one of those bottom eater things...Yin (the other one) will miss him a lot...I hope my black finned shark Larz, and Yin make it...

I finally updated, and you guys are getting to read this!

I am starting a Danny Phantom fic (my 1st one!). But I won't be posting it until I have most of it wrote out, or until one of my other stories are done.

I got the shot thingy that you have to have to go into high school today! It didn't even hurt! I was so scared it would...My 16 year old brother cried when he got his, and I didn't! HA!...I have to tease him about that later...

Yesterday, I got 2 new fish! I bought them from a different store than I got the others, so I hope they live longer. And my little brother got a mini catfish thing to put in the same tank. I know...you guys are all probably thinking "When is she gonna realize that she's just NOT a fish person?"...but, oh well...I'll try one last time...

DISCLAIMER-
Don't own it...Wish I did...I'd be rich...and famous...and I could have a pet hippopotamus...I've always wanted a hippopotamus...okay I lied, I've never wanted a hippopotamus before, but it's a cool word...

Chapter 12: Captured again

PS: The word "Dark" as in dark pokemon, has been put in this chapter in an unusual way...Can anyone find it?

'Rika?...Rika!...RIKA!'

Rika jumped up, startled by whoever was yelling at her.

"Ah! I'm up!" She yelled back with her eyes still closed.

She slowly opened one eye, only to see a pair of bright blue eyes staring back at her.

"Ahhh!" She screamed, and fell backwards onto her back.

The 'thing' with the blue eyes looked at her, and floated up above her face.

"Hey...wait a second..." Rika said, looking at the strange pokemon.

Her eyes went wide as realisation hit her. "Y-your M-mew..." She stuttered out.

Mew shook it's head up and down while giggling.

(AN: Yes, Mew CAN giggle. It does in Pokemon: The First Movie...I don't own that either...)

The pink cat like Pokemon lowered her tail so it was in front of Rika. Rika just looked at it for a moment, before Mew rapped its' tail around her waist and pull her off of her feet, and onto the ground.

"Uh...Thanks..." She said, still shocked that she was even in the PRESENC of the legendary Mew.

"I shouldn't be that shocked...You've been talking to me for a while now in my dreams." Rika stated, shaking off the nervousness.

Rika looked around to see where they were at. It looked like...well...nothing. Everything was a white/pink color. It appeared that they were floating rather then standing.

"You can talk to me now, right? I mean in my mind..." She asked the small creature.

'Yes, I can.' She said, using telepathy.

"Cool. Hey...Where is Espeon?"

"Espeon! Esp!"

Rika turned around and saw her Pokemon. She was holding Rika's backpack, along with the still sleeping, Pichu inside of it.

She took the backpack, and called Espeon back into its' pokeball, deciding they were safe for the time being.

"Hey Mew. Where are we, and why are you here? I didn't know what had happened last time you spoke to me."

'Well, we are no where really. Just an endless room. But we are safe until I teleport us out of here. I am here, because I was in danger, and when I'm in danger, I use teleport. When I do that, I appear here. I can teleport anywhere I want from this room.

Team Shadow had captured me with some sort of net. They forgot about me being psychic, or they were too careless to do anything about it. I knew I could get away at any time I chose, so I decided to play along, and act like I was captured. They took me to the building you were just in, and I saw many pokemon, being in cages for experiments. I figure that is where Articuno and Suicune have disappeared to, but I can only teleport so much at a time.

I didn't stick around any longer. I knew that if I wanted to save those two, and the other captive pokemon, then I should find you, because I believe you can help us. That is why I chose to speak to you through your dreams anyways. I knew, after two of the legendary pokemon disappeared, it wouldn't be long before they looked for the others. So I found you, and you happened to be in the same building I was in.'

"So...could you teleport us to where Gary is? We'd have to go back inside of that building, with Team Shadow...But I can't leave him behind. And he might be able to help free Articuno and Suicune!" Rika said, after listening to Mew's story.

'Of course...But I don't know which room he is in, so we would appear in a random room...We'd have to find them from there.'

"That's good enough...Let's go!"

Both of them were once again surrounded by a light, and were teleported inside of Team Shadow's Head Quarters...

"So your awake?" Kila said to Gary, whom to her knowledge, had just awoken. She turned around to face, er...rather, look down, at Gary, who was still strapped down to the table.

"I said, Where is my friend?" He asked, more bold this time.

Now that he had his eyes open, he could see Kila. She had on a white lab coat over whatever she was wearing, and the only other visible clothing, was a Black/Grey hat she wore. It had the letters 'TS' , printed on it. Her hair was straight and brown, going down past her shoulders, and her eyes were bright blue.

"You sure are brave for a kid. Or maybe just ignorant. Either way, it's none of your business." She answered back.

"Yeah, it is my business! She's my friend, what do you expect me to do! Sit back and watch you guys do experiments on her!" Gary said.

"How did you know that? You weren't asleep, were you?" Kila said. "Well I can fix that."

She took out a pokeball from her lab coat, and released the Pokemon from it.

"Gengar!"

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Gary said, smirking. "The way I heard it, your boss wanted me awake..."

Kila opened her mouth to argue, but nothing came out...He was right...

"Gengar, stay here and watch him while I go and personally, tell the boss that the sleeping brat has awaken..." Kila said rudely, before she walked out of the room.

Gary looked at where she had walked out, then at the Gengar, whom was staring at him. He noticed that on it's forehead, it had a the letters T.S. in bold, red letters.

'Must be some kinda tattoo...That's kinda cruel...' He thought to himself.

"What are you lookin' at?" Gary asked the ghost Pokemon.

"Gen..." Was the only response he got, as the Gengar continued to stare at him with his blood red eyes.

"Sir...We have a slight problem..." Said the guard that suppose to be watching and interrogating Rika.

A shadowy figure sat at a desk, sipping a glass of red wine every so often. His voice was very deep when he answered.

"Oh...And what would that be?" Mark Krad, asked his employee, David Marlena.

"Well...um...The experiments will have to be postponed...The female test subject...has escaped..." The guard said, ready to be yelled at, and possibly fired. Although if he was fired, he would be held captive. The boss took no chances...

Mark sat still for a moment, before the glass in his hand cracked, spilling the wine onto his desk.

(AN: I hope this guy isn't too much like Giovanni (dunno how to spell that...) or Slade /Teen Titans/...)

"How?" He asked, his voice not raising the slightest bit, "Where you not the one watching her?"

"Well...Y-yes sir, but-"

"Then why did she escape?" He asked again.

The guard, Dave, was silent.

"Go back to your post...I'll deal with you later..."

"Yes sir..." He said, leaving the room.

Mark stood up and left the room shortly after David had. He was going to see if Matthew could actually do something useful for once...

Lisa saw him walking down the hallway.

"Sir!" She called out.

Mark stopped and turned around. "Shouldn't you be in the lab? What do you need?" He asked sharply.

"Sir, the male patient is awake." She said.

"Well, it doesn't really matter at the moment. There has been a slight problem with the other one escaping. Go back and make sure he stays in the room..." Mark said, walking off to Matthew's office again.

Lisa walked back to the lab quickly. She didn't want the boy to escape...it would be her fault...

'Umbreon! We have to get out of here!' Eevee cried. She was jumping, trying to reach a window in the dark room they were in.

Really, it wasn't that dark now. It must have been night when they had woke up, because now there was a little light in the room, coming from the window.

Umbreon was sitting beside the only door in the room. He hadn't spoken since they had talked about Gary and Rika.

'Don't you even want out? We could find them, and get out of-YES!' Eevee shouted, finally reaching her paws at the window seal. Slowly, she pulled herself up...only to find the window closed, and steel bars on the outside of the glass...

'NO! That was my last plan of getting out of here...' She said, falling backwards to land on the concrete ground.

'Owww...'

'Eevee...I have a plan.' Umbreon said, speaking for the first time in hours.

'Really? Hope it's better than mine...' She said, walking over to Umbreon beside the door.

'You do know, that they'll have to come in this room eventually. So when they come in, they'll have pokemon with them, that way we can't attack the humans.'

'Yeah...what's your point?' Eevee asked, tilting her head to the left. She was still in the dark here...

'Well, they would expect both of us to be here. So what if I...disappeared?' He asked.

'And...How would you do that?'

'Ever heard of Faint Attack?' He said, smiling...

Rika and Mew appeared in some sort of hallway. Lucky for them, the coast was clear. Not one guard was in sight...For now anyways...

'So do you recognize this place?' Mew asked, still speaking in her mind.

"Nuh uh..." Rika answered.

'Well...we should look around some, but try not to be seen. It takes a lot of energy to teleport humans...'

(AN: I don't really know if it takes a lot of energy...Sorry if you disagree...)

"Ok. Which way do you want to go fir-"

'Shh...I hear people talking...' Mew said, covering Rika's mouth with her tail.

(AN: Sorry...keep interrupting...But I also don't know if Mew is male or female. I know in the games, it is shown as "No Gender". But in this story, Mew is female. Not for any specific reason, but I had to choose one or the other, cause I hate calling Mew an "it")

Mark Krad started to continue his way down the hall, after being stopped by Lisa.

He stopped around a corner to listen for a moment...

'For a second I thought I heard someone...' He thought to himself.

"Nuh uh..." He heard someone say.

It was quiet until he heard the person speak again.

"Ok. Which way do you want to go fir-"

'Why did whoever that was just stop in mid sentence...And who are they talking to?' He questioned himself.

Mark reached down to his waist to take off a pokeball he had attached to his belt. He silently pushed the button on the small device, and a pokemon came out. A Houndoom...

'I think they're gone...' Mew told Rika.

Rika nodded. She wasn't going to take a chance.

Suddenly a Houndoom ran around the corner and pounced on Rika.

"Ah!" She screamed as she fell to the ground.

'Rika!' Mew said, preparing to use an attack on the pokemon.

"Hm...I see we have our two escape artists..." Mark said, walking around the corner.

Mew didn't even have time to turn around before it was hit with a Shadow Ball from another one of Mark's pokemon, this time a Mightyena...

"Mew!" Rika yelled, trying to get out from under the dog pokemon. It growled at her, showing it's sharp fangs.

'Oh no! Mightyena is a dark type! Mew won't have a chance...' Rika thought, trying to think of something that would help her and Mew.

Mew recovered from the blow after a brief moment, and tried a Psybeam. It had no affect on the dark type...

"Again Mightyena." Mark stated calmly. His pokemon took no time is hurling another Shadow ball at the poor Psychic pokemon.

Mew fell to the ground, Unable to get up.

'He must have strong pokemon to defeat a legendary so easily. Even with a type advantage...' Rika thought again. 'There's no WAY any of my pokemon can beat him!'

Mark saw the scared look on Rika's face. "Impressed?" He asked in a snobby tone.

"No! Your just a...a big jerk!" She shouted, frustration written all over her face.

He ignored her comment as he took out a cell phone from his pocket.

"Lisa? We have a change of plans on the experiment. It turns out we can do it now anyways..." He smiled as he put the phone back in his pocket.

"Really, I must thank you little girl, for bringing back my Mew. I thought it was lost...Oh, and by the way, my name is Mark, not that it'll matter soon anyways..."

Rika just stared at him before turning her head the other direction.

Two men walked up with Lisa. Both of them were wearing black uniforms. (except Lisa, who was wearing what I described earlier...)

Mark recalled his pokemon as the two men grabbed Rika on each arm. She didn't struggle...She was no match for either of these men, or Mark's pokemon. Lisa, whom Rika didn't know yet, picked up Mew in her arms.

"Sir? Do you want us to set up for the experiment now?" Lisa asked Mark.

"No. Not today. We will start at noon tomorrow." He answered.

"Yes sir. We'll take them and put them with the other one." Lisa said, walking off with Mew still in her arms, the two men holding Rika following.

'Now to go check on Matthew...'

Matt jumped when he heard a knock on the door.

He sat up as the person came in.

"Father?" He asked.

"Matthew...If you wish to maitain your current job, then I suggest you refer to me as Mr. Krad or Sir..." Mark snapped at him.

"Yes sir...What is it that you need?" He asked his father and boss.

"I need you to go check up on the two pokemon. We need to keep them alive."

"Why?"

"Because, if the one of the brats decide they want to escape again, then we can use them as blackmail. Trainers like them love their pokemon, and will do almost anything to protect them."

"Yes sir. I'll be right on it." Matthew said, walking out of the room.

"Good..." Mark said, walking out and back towards his office.

OK!
