Pokemon: New Generations
After finally getting there first badges, Axon, Christy, and David left Pewter City on their quest to the next town. They now walk, with their pokemon on their shoulders, on the path of route 3, which will hopefully lead them to where they want to go.
"So now where are we going?" David asked Axon who was looking at his map.
"Let's see here," Axon observed the map, "Right now we're on route 3, and the closest gym is in..ah, here we are. Cerulean City!"
"Cerulean City," Christy said, "How far is that?"
"Well," Axon continued, "It says here that if we cut through Mt. Moon, we should be able to get back on a short route that leads straight on into the town."
"Great," David said, "and from the sounds of it Mt. Moon isn't that far away is it?"
"It shouldn't be." Axon smiled folding the map up, and putting it away.
"Hold on," Christy said, "You mean we have to hike up a mountain? I don't know if my legs have the strength for that."
"Well," David opened his guide book, "It says that Mt. Moon is filled with caves and tunnels. We just have to go through one of them and hope for the best."
"Knowing our luck that won't be very good." Christy muttered to Plusle. Plusle laughed quiet enough so no one could here.
"Maii! Maii!" Minun pointed up the hill to a clearing.
"Huh? What is it Minun?" Axon asked looking up into the clearing. He saw a man and a woman standing, in front of a bunch of caution tape. "Hey guys, look!"
"Hey, what is that?" Christy asked looking up.
"I don't know," David followed. "Let's find out."
Axon, David, and Christy ran up the hill to the clearing. They saw behind the caution tape there was a big mountain, and what looked like rocks fallen inside some tunnels. The man and woman smiled when they approached.
"Hey," David approached with his friend, "uh, this wouldn't happen to be Mt. Moon, would it?"
"Why yes it is young man." The woman smiled.
"Well, if you could please move the caution tape," Axon said, "We need to get through Mt. Moon please."
"Well I'm sorry but I can't allow you to do that." The woman smiled again. Axon, David, and Christy all jumped.
"What?" Axon exclaimed, "You don't understand, we have to get through here. Otherwise we can't get to Cerulean City."
"Oh no, I completely understand." The woman giggled.
"Um, not to sound rude," Christy crossed her arms, "But you're the only one who is finding this funny."
"I'm sorry but for your own safety we can't let you past this point." She said pleasantly.
"What do you mean?" David asked.
"Let me explain this," The man on the side stepped up, "I'm afraid Mt. Moon isn't safe for traveling right now."
"What? Why not?" Christy asked.
"Lately, there have been random tremors," The man explained, "The've been causing the rocks of Mt. Moon to fall in all over the place. We've tried to find out why but, no one's been able to get close enough with out the rocks falling."
"That sounds dangerous." Christy said.
"That's right," The woman nodded, "We've been standing here trying to warn people about—"
The woman was interrupted by a loud sound that shook the ground around them. They all struggled to stay up. They heard some rocks fall. The shaking stopped after a few minutes.
"Waugh, what was that?" Axon exclaimed getting back on his feet.
"That was one of the tremors." The man said.
"What could be causing these?" David said, "There has to be something in there that's doing this."
"We're doing our best to find out." The man said.
"Wait a minute," Axon jumped, "If we can't get through, how are we supposed to get to Cerulean City? We can't just give up now."
"Oh, silly me," The woman giggled, "Since nobody can get through Mt. Moon, we've been distributing Hot air ballons to them so they can fly over.
"Fly?" Christy said. The woman pointed over to the left. The three of them looked over. There were a bunch of hot air ballonss, set up in rows over to the right. The woman walked over to them. They all followed her. She walked up to the big red ballon that was the closest to them. She opened the door for them.
"Hop in!" She smiled.
"It's really okay if we use this?" Christy asked.
"Of course," The woman nodded, "but do you need one of us to come with you? In case you don't know how to use it correctly."
"We'll be fine," Axon smiled, "Our father taught us how to use these when we were real young. My sister and I know air balloons like the back of our hands."
"Okay then," The woman giggled. Axon and Christy both walked in the balloon with their pokemon. They turned around and waited for David, who was standing completely still and looking a little red in the face.
"Uh, David?" Axon waved his hand in David's face, "Hello? Man, you coming?"
"Huh? Oh, heh, heh, yeah." David smiled nervously stepping into the hot air balloon with Charmander. The woman closed the door behind them.
"Well are you all set?" The woman asked.
"Yes," Christy smiled, "Thank you for your help."
"Your welcome, and good luck." The woman waved. Axon pulled on the burner, and the balloon began to lift up. Axon, Christy, Minun, Plusle, and Charmander all waved as the ballon lift higher and higher. The woman began to look smaller every minute from their view. Once they were high enough, Axon pulled on the burner again.They began to move forward. Axon and Christy turned down to see David, crouched up in the corner, even more red than before.
"David are you okay?" Christy exclaimed.
"Uh, David?" Axon hesitated, "You wouldn't happen to be afraid of heights would you?"
"Heh, heh, is it that obvious?" David tried to crack a smile, "Let's just say boats are more of my thing." Axon and Christy both laughed.
"David, you don't have to worry." Christy smiled, "Axon and I have been around air balloons for a long time."
"You're sure?" David hesitated.
"We're sure," Axon laughed turning around, "Now come on you've got to see the view."
David decided to get up. He looked over the edge to see the view of Mt. Moon. His face lit up at the sight.
"Wow, it's amazing." David exclaimed.
"Isn't it?" Christy smiled. Since the three of them were so distracted by the scenery around them, they hardly noticed their pokemon playing behind them. Plusle, Minun, and Charmander were at their tag game again, and started to go higher up in the balloon close to the burner. They played on the bars that were connected to the cup that was holding the flame.
Charmander pretended it was on a trapeze and began to walk on the bars, balancing itself.
"Char! Char! Mander!" Charmander joked and flipped on the bars.
"Maii! Nuhn!" Minun laughed holding on to Plusle.
"Pluh-ha! Pluh-ha!" Plusle did the same. Charmander made it to the end of the bar, right next to the burner and turned around so it's back was to it. The flame on it's tail was very close to the flame of the burner.
"Maii!" Minun exclaimed warning Charmander. Charmander jumped at the warning. The flame on it's tail touched the burner, and made the flame grow much bigger.
"Charrgh!" Charmander screamed. Jumping away from the burner.
"Huh?" Axon turned around at the scream. He looked up at the burner and spotted the huge flame.. "Waugh, oh no!" The balloon started to go higher and faster.
"What's going on?" Christy and David both said turning around. They both jumped at the sight. David panicked and ran to the burner and began pulling on it.
"No David. Not like that." Christy shouted. But it was too late. The burner enflamed even bigger and they all went shooting into the air.
"Waaaaaaauuuuugggghhhh!" They all screamed holding onto the side of the basket.
"Maii! Maii! Nuhn! Maii!" Minun clutched with Plusle onto the upper ropes.
"Pluhhhhhhh!" Plusle cried for its trainer. Charmander held onto the bars for dear life. Axon struggled to reach into his pocket. He pulled out a poke-ball and through it.
"Go, Totodile!" He shouted. Totodile appeared in the middle of basket, and immediately clutched to the side. "Totodile, the burner. I need you to use your watergun to wear down the burner. Hurry!"
Totodile took in a big breath of air.
"Wait, Totodile not so hard!" Christy cried. But it was too late. Totodile sent a huge blast of water at the burner and caused it to go completely out. The air balloon went hurdling down this time. Axon quickly retrieved Totodile. The basket went crooked, and made Axon, Christy, and David all fall out. Minun and Plusle lost their grip and fell after them. Last but not least, Charmander slipped off the bars and joined the falling crew.
"Aaaaughh!" They all screamed. They came closer and closer to Mt. Moon.
"We're gonna fall straight into the tunnels," David cried. They came closer and closer, until they crashed right through the surface, and into the dark cave of Mt. Moon.
David and Christy lie next to each other, unconscious in the dark cave. Christy began to open her eyes, and sat up. She looked over and saw Charmander laying next to David. She quickly looked around for Plusle.
"Plusle? Plusle where are you?" Christy cried out. She heard something sparking nearby. She looked over to a pile of rocks, and saw sparks shooting out of it. She quickly got up ran to the rocks and began shoveling through them. "Oh no. Plusle, Hang on sweetie!"
David opened his eyes. He sat up and looked over to Christy, who was frantically trying to get the rocks off of Plusle. He wanted to help but he couldn't just leave Charmander. Then he remembered that he still had Charmander's poke-ball. He quickly retrieved Charmander and ran to help Christy.
"Woah, how did this happen? Hang on Plusle!" David shouted as he shoveled out the rocks. As soon as Christy could see a little bit of Plusle's foot, she immediately grabbed it and hugged her with out looking.
"Oh, Plusle I'm so glad you're okay." She smiled. David itched his head.
"Uh, that doesn't look like Plusle." David hesitated.
"Huh?" Christy said as she held out Plusle to take a good look. It wasn't Plusle at all, it was Minun. "Minun? Hey..there, you…"
"Maii," Minun said nervously.
"Hey, where is Axon anyway?" David looked around. Axon was nowhere in sight. "He must've fallen into a deeper tunnel."
"Wait a minute," Christy jumped, dropping Minun, "If I have Minun, then that means Axon must have…"
Axon opened his eyes in the dark chamber. He looked around for his friends that were no where in sight.
"Guys? Minun? Anyone?" Axon called out nervously. He felt a light, cuddly pokemon jump on his head. "Minun, it's you. I'm so glad to see-"
"Pluhh!" Plusle cheered as Axon pulled it down.
"Oh!" Axon jumped, "Hey Plusle! Where's Minun?"
"Puluhh!" Plusle moaned sadly.
"Hey, it's okay," Axon smiled, "I'm happy to see you too. But, I wish I knew where the others were."
"Slah!" Plusle agreed. Axon picked up Plusle and stood up. He took another look around. There were fallen rocks everywhere.
"Christy! David! Charmander! Minun!" Axon called out. There was no answer. "Where could they be? Come on Plusle, let's go look for them."
"Plusle! Plusle!" Plusle cheered. Axon and Plusle set out in search for their friends.
"Minun, do you have any idea where Axon is?" Christy bent down, desperate for an answer. Minun shook its head sadly. "Oh-no, Axon doesn't know how to take care of Plusle. He doesn't know that you have to cuddle it every now in then or else it gets lonely. He doesn't know that you have to tickle it, to make it laugh. He doesn't know that you have to warm her pokemon food to a certaint temperature. He doesn't know that-"
"Cool it Christy!" David interupteded her, "Let's just go ands see if we can find them anywhere. They're probably still somewhere in the cave."
"Okay then," Christy sighed picking up Minun, "Looks like you're my Plusle for now, Minun."
"Maii! Maii!" Minun giggled. They walked out to find there friends. As they walked they saw more and more fallen rocks. Christy began to get nervous, "I don't know how safe it is for us to be in here. If too many rocks fall, we could be trapped in here forever."
"We might already be," David muttered to himself. He didn't say it out loud, because he was afraid of what Christy's reaction might be."
Axon and Plusle, walked in the deep dark tunnels of Mt. Moon. Suddenly there was a big shaking and loud crashing noises.
"Aaugh!" Axon exclaimed, "This must be another tremor."
"Pluhh! Pluhh! Slah!" Plusle cried out, holding tighter to Axon. The tremor stopped and Axon stood up straight. He looked over to the left.
"That tremor was from over there." He acknowledged, "Let's go see what it was!"
Axon ran, holding Plusle close. They came to more fallen rocks. From the dust that was coming from under them, Axon could tell that they had just fallen. He heard movement coming from the other side of the rocks.
"Who's there?" Axon demanded. He jumped up onto the rocks so that he could see the other side. His face screwed up at the sight. "Oh boy!"
A giant Ursaring, stood enraged on the other side. It bashed the walls, causing more tremors and rocks to fall. It paused and spotted Axon.
"Raarrgghh!" The Ursaring roared. It came charging at Axon.
"Waauggh!" Axon screamed jumping down off the rocks and running the opposite way, "Let's get out of here."
The ursaring smashed through the rocks and chased Axon and Plusle through the tunnels. Axon desperately ran with Plusle clutched at his chest. He didn't know if he could make it.
Meanwhile, Christy and David walked with Minun through their own side of the cave. Christy didn't like the darkness of the cave.
"Hey, David" She said, "Can you let out Charmander? It's too dark in here."
"Oh right I almost forgot." David reached into his pocket, and pulled out Charmander's poke-ball, "Go, Charmander! Lead the way with your flame."
Charmander appeared and began leading the way. The flame on it's tail lit up the cave. Christy smiled.
"It's funny" She giggled, "Sometimes Charmander's flame does bad things. Like enflame that flare in the balloon. But, then it turns around and makes the cave light up when we need it. It really is a loyal and helpful pokemon."
"Yeah, it really is." David smiled. They continued to walk through the cave.As they walked David looked over on the wall and looked at all the shadows. Suddenly he saw a huge shadow of what looked like a bear. He jumped. "What is that?"
"What is what?" Christy looked over on the wall. She jumped at the site, and the two of them began to back up when Christy looked down near Charmander's tail. She saw a cute little pokemon, that looked like a stuffed teddy bear, playing around the flame.
"Ooh! Look, a teddiursa." Christy shrieked in excitement. She bent down and rubbed it's head. "You're a real cutie aren't you? What are you doing in this dark cave all alone?"
"I wonder if it got separated from it's family." David said. Minun jumped down next to Teddiursa.
"Maii! Nuhn! Maii!" Minun smiled. It seemed to be introducing itself.
"Char! Char!" Charmander said.
"Teddiurse!" Teddiursa giggled. Suddenly, there was a big shake, and the sound of falling rocks. They all trembled in their places.
"Another tremor." David acknowledged as the tremor stopped, "We have to hurry up and find Axon so we can get out of here. Let's get going."
"Wait," Christy said, "We can't just leave this Teddiursa here all alone. It could get hurt. Can't we take it with us?"
"Maii!" Minun pleaded along.
"Mander! Man!" Charmander joined in. David face fell into a smile.
"Fine, come on Teddiursa!" He smiled.
"Teddi! Ursa! Ursa!" Teddiursa cheered up and down. Minun and Charmander did the same. Christy picked it up, and they continued through the cave.
Axon and Plusle continue to run for their lives from the Ursaring. They were beginning to get tired. Plusle suddenly fell from the exauhstion.
"Plusle!" Axon cried, bending down and picking her up. "Come on Plusle! Get up! Hurry!"
The Ursaring approached. It stood still and began to roar again.
"Rawggh!" It shouted. Axon stood up with encouragement. He pulled out a poke-ball.
"If I can't get away from you I'll have to battle." Axon said. He threw out his poke-ball, "Go, Totodile!" Totodile appeared out of the poke-ball,
"Rawrrg!" The Ursaring roared again. Totodile didn't back down.
"Since I don't have Minun you'll have to be my star player." Axon said, "Use your watergun attack!"
Totodile sent a huge blast of water hurdling towards Ursaring. Ursaring jumped to the side, and got back up. It charged at Totodile, and swung its claws at its small body. Totodile jumped up, just missing the swing.
"Totodile, quick attack in to Ursaring's stomach," Axon ordered. Totodile charged at high speed right into Ursaring's stomach. Ursaring clenched it's sides in pain, falling to it's knees, "Great, it looks like you weakened it. Tackle it!"
Totodile jumped into the air and bashed down onto Ursaring's body. Ursaring slammed down onto the ground.
"Good, now finish it off with watergun!" Axon shouted. Totodile hopped down, then sent another huge water blast at Ursaring. This made Ursaring slam onto the ground again and stay there. Axon smiled. "You did great Totodile!"
But suddenly, Ursaring stood up and began roaring even louder then before.
"RAGWWRGH! ROARRGHH!" It screamed out.
"Aaughh! What's it doing?" Axon shouted covering his ears. He looked up and saw the Ursaring stop screaming. He uncovered his ears, then heard some big footsteps. Another Ursaring came bursting into the scene. "Ah, not another one."
"Roarrr!" The other Ursaring roared, they both stood up looking fierce, and angry. They both charged at Totodile.
"Oh-no, Totodile, get out of there!" Axon cried. Totodile tried to dodge the attack but was hit down by both of their claws. After that they both slammed onto Totodile with a full body slam. They both got off of it. The second Ursaring picked up Totodile and threw it on the ground near Axon.
"No Totodile!" Axon cried.He ran and picked up Totodile close to him. He was now holding both Totodile and Plusle. He looked up at the Ursaring who were now jumping around, and causing more tremors. Axon braced himself for the next attack.
David and Christy walked with Charmander leading the way, now with a new pokemon. Then there was another big tremor.
"Woah," David exclaimed, "The tremors are getting worse and worse as we move deeper into Mt. Moon."
"We have to get out of here." Christy nodded. They began to walk again when a familiar voice echoed through the tunnel.
"Unfortunately, we can't allow you to do that." The voice said. Christy and David both zipped around to see the three bandits from before.
"You guys again?" David exclaimed.
"The Goon Trio!" Christy made an angry face, "Ester, JJ, and Dalem."
"That's right little girl," Ester smirked, "You remembered our name. Very good."
"You got me last time with that Plusle of yours," Dalem grunted, "But this time you won't be so lucky."
"Char! Char!" Charmander shouted.
"Maii! Nuhn!" Minun shouted enraged.
"Just leave us alone," David demanded, "It's not safe for any of us to be here. Don't you know about the tremors?"
"You really are dumb aren't you." JJ shook his head, "We're the reason those tremors started in first place."
"What? What do you mean?" Christy asked accusingly.
"Do we really have to explain it?" Ester said, "After you humiliated us, we escaped and tried to think of another reason to get you guys back. What better way to get you back then to stop you from getting to Cerulean for your gym battle?"
"So we snuck into Mt. Moon," JJ continued to explain, "and we scared the Ursaring into an outrage. They began crashing around like idiots until they made the rocks fall everywhere and block the entrance."
"Wait a minute. Did you say Ursaring?" David asked looking down at Teddiursa, "Then that means that this Teddiursa must be with them. It's not lost after all."
"I don't care what you try to do,." Christy shouted, "We're leaving and that's that."
"You idiot," Dalem exclaimed, "The only way out is with this."
The Goon Trio stepped aside so that a giant drill came into view. David and Christy both jumped.
"A giant Drill!" David exclaimed, "So that's how you've been getting in and out of the tunnels. You don't understand. Will die in here if you don't let us out."
"Well, what about your precious friend, and loyal brother," Ester made a fake puppy dog face, "Axon, wasn't it? Aren't you forgetting about him? He's in trouble too you kow."
"Axon?" Christy jumped, "Plusle is with him too. You know where they are don't you? Where are they?"
"Woah, take it easy Kissy," Dalem laughed.
"Grrr it's Christy!" Christy demanded.
"Whatever," Dalem shook his head, "We're still not gonna just tell you where he is."
"Then we'll just have to take you down with our pokemon." David shouted.
"If that's what you want, then fine." Ester smirked, pulling out a poke-ball, "Then, Go Fearow!"
The big bird pokemon appeared out of the poke-ball.
"Go Charmander!" David pointed. Charmander hopped out into battle.
"Jolteon, I choose you!" Dalem shouted. Jolteon appeared.
"And I choose Plusle! Show 'em what you go-" Christy began to shout, but then realized she didn't have Plusle. She looked down at Minun. "Oh yeah, you're not Plusle are you. Well, show them what you've got Minun."
Minun jumped out onto the field.
"Fearow, use wing attack." Ester ordered firmly. Fearow swooped down at Charmander who jumped to the side when Fearow approached.
"Flamethrower attack!" David shouted. Chrmander sent a huge flame for Fearow. The bird pokemon only dodged the attack. It was faster then ever.
"Alright fearow whirlwind attack!" Ester ordered. Attention caught David's eye on Christy's side. Jolteon was rapidly attacking Minun, but Christy wasn't able to fight back.
"Come on Minun!" Christy cried desperately, "Use thunder. Thunder Minun! Why won't you listen to me?" Minun sat there not understanding Christy's commands. It tried to fight back in it's own defense but not much was working.
"Christy," David shouted, ignoring his own battle, "Minun can't listen to your commands because you're not it's trainer."
"What?" Christy looked at David, "But I've known Minun as long as I've known Plusle. We're friends too."
"But Axon is still it's trainer." David cried, "Hurry before Minun get's hurt."
"Minun, as your friend I'm asking you to use your thunder attack." Christy tried. Still nothing. "Then as your trainers sister I order you to listen to me." Still nothing. Jolteon charged at Minun. "THEN AS SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T WANT YOU TO DIE, I'M TELLING YOU TO RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!"
This time Minun listened, and ran the other way. But, Jolteon was too fast for it. It tackled Minun from behind. Minun fell to the ground and couldn't move. It was barely staying conscious.
"Minun!" Christy cried, running out to pick him up, she looked up at David's side of the two battles, "David, look out."
"Huh?" David shook his head clear and looked at his battle. Fearow's big and powerful winds were too much for it. "Oh-no, Charmander. Get out of there."
Charmander was tossed around by the powerful winds and couldn't get free. It colasped to the ground and didn't get up. The winds stopped and David ran out to Charmander.
"No, Charmander!" David cried. He began to speak quietly, "This is my fault. I wasn't paying attention. Please forgive me."
"Ha, Now let's finish them off," Ester ordered.
"This is for putting me in that jail cell." Dalem grunted. "Jolteon, attack those nerds."
"Fearow, get 'em." Ester ordered. Fearow and Jolteon charged at them, when suddenly who else should jump in front but Teddiursa. Jolteon and Fearow halted.
"Oh, that's cute." Ester smirked, "Look at the wittle bwear."
"What's Teddiursa doing?" David whispered over to Christy.
"I think it wants to battle." Christy said.
"Then you guide it." David said.
"Okay then," Christy nodded, "Teddiursa, please listen to me."
Teddiursa nodded to Christy, showing it would battle for her. Christy clenched her knuckles.
"If I remember your attacks correctly, then use swift attack." Christy shouted. Sharp stars came out of the moon sign on its head and struck Fearow and Jolteon. They both bolted back. "Good, now use your claws for a fury swipes attack."
Teddiursa ran up to both Fearow and Jolteon and rapidly took its claws and scratched their faces. Fearow and Jolteon both fell to the ground. They immediatlely fainted.
"Argh, return Jolteon." Dalem grunted,
"Return Fearow. Grrr, that's it." Ester stomped over to Teddiursa and picked it up tightly so that it couldn't move. "I'll just take this Teddiursa away from you. That'll be revenge enough."
"Quit playing Ester. That Teddiursa doesn't belong to any of us." David demanded.
"Wave bye bye, Teddiursa! You're coming with us now." Ester taunted as she took Teddiursa's paw and made it wave. Teddiursa struggled and squirmed but still couldn't break free.
"Guh, give it back now," Christy charged at Ester, attempting to tackle her down. Only, when she got close JJ jumped in front and knocked her down. "No, urgh, Teddiursa!"
"Teddi! Ursa! Ursa! Teddiurse!" Teddiursa squirmed. It then turned to a cry, "URSA! URSA! URSA!"
Axon sat on his knees, clenching to Plusle and Totodile. Plusle was beginning to wake up but still wasn't strong enough to battle. The Ursaring approached closer and closer. Axon closed his eyes tightly. He thought it was the end, but suddenly..
"URSA! URSA! URSA!" Echoed through the tunnel. The two Ursaring stopped in their tracks and turned where the voice was coming from. They then ran toward the voice, leaving Axon and the pokemon.
"Was that?" Axon stood up. Plusle jumped down from his arms. "That sounded like a Teddiursa."
"Pluh, Pluh!" Plusle agreed.
"Return, Totodile," Axon retrieved his pokemon then turned down to Plusle, "Let's go find out what that was."
"Puluh." Plusle nodded. The two of them ran, and followed the Ursaring.
"URSA! URSA! URSA!" Teddiursa continued to scream.
"Will you be quiet?!" Ester began to get annoyed, as she struggled to keep it still.
"Teddiursa, try to break free! Huh?" David turned around at a loud booming noise that made the ground shake. Two Ursaring were charging in, and they didn't look happy. They ran past David and were coming for Christy. "Christy, look out!"
"Look guys, it's our good friends the Ursaring." JJ smirked. The Ursaring continued for Christy.
"Aaaugghh, oh-no!" Christy shut her eyes, preparing for a lot of pain. But she didn't feel anything. She opened her eyes to see the Ursaring avoiding her, and going after The Goon Trio.
"Uh-oh." Ester jumped realizing why they were charging. She was trying to kidnap their child, and they wanted it back. Ester dropped the Teddiursa, and tried to negotiate nervously, "Y-you see. You can have your baby back. I-it's all good now right?"
"RAAWWGGH!" The Ursaring roared and continued to charge.
"Waugh, guess not." Ester ran the opposite way. She ran towards her other gang members, seeking some help.
"Hey! Don't bring them over here! Nooo!" Dalem exclaimed, turning around and running with JJ. The three of them desperately ran out, and in to another tunnel.
"Grr, you might've gotten off easy this time, but we will be back!" Ester shouted back to them.
"Ha, good riddance!" Christy sang, waving happily.
"Hey guys!" A familiar voice said. Christy turned around and saw Axon running toward them with Plusle.
"Axon!" Christy shrieked in excitement.
"Maii!" Minun cried out happily running towards its trainer and jumping into his arms.
"Minun, oh wow!" Axon laughed rolling on the ground, "I missed you so much."
"Puluhh!" Plusle jumped into Christy's arms. Christy dropped to her knees in a hug.
"I was so worried. Don't ever leave me again." She smiled, holding Plusle out to take a good look.
"Glad you're okay." David smiled. There was another big tremor, and they could here more rocks falling. It sounded like the Ursaring were doing some pretty bad damage. "We have to find a way out of here or this place will crash down on us."
"Then let's get going." Axon nodded looking around, "Uh, but which way is the way out?"
"Teddiurse! Ursa! Ursa!" Teddiursa came jumping and pointing a certaint direction.
"I think Teddiursa wants us to follow it." Christy smiled. "Okay then, lead the way Teddiursa, and please hurry."
Teddiursa nodded and began running down a path. They all followed. As they ran, David and Christy told Axon what happened with them as Axon told them what happened with him. Soon they came to a giant wall of rocks, that looked like it was blocking the exit.
"Let's push our way through." David suggested. Axon and Christy both nodded and walked up to the rocks. They all, with their pokemon, began pushing on the rocks.
"Come on!" Christy grunted, "Let's move rocks. Work with me here. I don't wanna die young."
"Let's go!" David urged, "Come on! Open up! Come on!"
"Urgh! We've got to get out of here." Axon grunted, slamming back and forth on the rocks, "Plusle, Minun try thunder."
Plusle and Minun made a huge thunderbolt at the rocks, but they only shifted a little.
"We're trapped in here." David dropped down.
"Wait a minute!" Christy got an idea, "Wait here guys. I'll be right back."
David and Axon looked at each other confused. A few minutes later, a big roaring sound came from down the tunnel. They saw a huge truck moving drill, zipping and moving crazy around the tunnel,and who else was behind the wheel but Christy herself. It was the drill from before. The Goon Trio's drill.
"Great idea Christy!" David's face lit up.
"T-thanks!" Christy said nervously trying to control the truck, "But it just occurred to me, that I have know idea how to control this thing. Wah, woah. Gang way."
The drill crashed into the wall making rocks fall. Then backed up and came for Axon, David, Minun and Teddiursa. Axon and David both jumped to the side, grabbing the pokemon. More rocks fell, and the drill was headed for the exit this time. The falling rocks were keeping them from getting to the exit themselves.
"If we don't jump on the back of the drill we might never make it out." David yelled over to Axon.
"Right! Here we go Minun. Hold on!" Axon jumped onto the back of the truck. "Take my hand David!"
"Alright! Charmander, hold on tight." David grabbed Axon's hand. Axon pulled David onto the truck. Teddiursa quickly jumped on as well. The drill slammed through the exit, and the team was in daylight. The truck came to a stop.
"We made it!" Axon jumped off of the truck, along with David.
"We did?" Christy stumbled out of the front seat with Plusle, feeling lightheaded. "We did! I'm alive! Thank goodness!"
"Ted! Urse! Ursa!" Teddiursa cheered in front of Christy.
"Teddiursa?" Chirsty itched her head confused. "What are you doing here? Aren't you going to stay in Mt. Moon, with the rest of your family?"
"Ursa! Ursa!" Teddiursa shook it's head no. It jumped into her arms, and cheered. "Teddi! Teddi! Ursaaa!"
"You really want to come?" Christy smiled. She turned to Plusle on her shoulder. "What do you think Plusle? Would you like Teddiursa to come along?"
"Pluh! Pluh! Pluh!" Plusle cheered. Christy pulled out a poke-ball.
"Well then, let's go poke-ball!" Christy tossed her poke-ball at Teddiursa. As the poke-ball came closer, Teddiursa happily jumped in. The ball fell to the ground and clicked almost immediately.
"Looks like you got a new friend." David smiled.
"and it looks like we're headed in the right direction." Axon smiled checking his map. "According to my map, we're right on route 4. This should lead us straight to Cerulean City."
"Awesome!" Christy cheered, "Then let's get going."
The three of them continued down the route, and headed for Cerulean City. With a new pokemon, it looks like the future is looking bright for them.
