"Twerp, it ain't too late to turn back you know?" Meowth complained for what seemed the hundredth time.

"And walk all the way back to the entrance? No way. That would be another thirty minutes of walking," Rex said in response.

"C'mon!" Meowth wined.

"Shut it," Rex threatened, "or would you rather I sick Torch on you?"

Torch, the only one of Rex's Pokémon out at the moment—he had coaxed Eevee into its ball just for the duration of their Mt. Moon trek—who was lighting the way, turned back towards them and let out a low growl that seemed to say, "Gladly."

"Fine," Meowth conceded, "but I warned you."

This continued for what felt like an eternity until they began to see lights strung up on the cave walls and Rex noted, "Well I guess we don't need Torch anymore. Return," a red beam of light shot at Torch and he disappeared into his pokéball.

This startled Meowth because he said, "No wait don-"

As Meowth was issuing his warning another voice shouted, "Parasect, spore!"

Before he knew what was going on, Rex blacked out. When he came to he was tied up on the cave floor his pokéballs and bag lying several feet away from him and Meowth sitting next to him also tied up.

Rex was at a loss and exclaimed, "Crap. What now? Hey, Derpy, wake up!" Rex reached out with his bound ankles and kicked Meowth.

"Hey, what's the deal? I was taking a cat nap," Meowth complained.

"We've been tied up. It seems you were right, Derpy. We probably shouldn't have come in here," Rex admitted.

"Yeah, I wasn't just yappin' for the sake of it y'know," Meowth snipped, "and don't call me Derpy! Twerp!" Meowth yelled. Rex rolled his eyes as Meowth began to squirm. He continued to wiggle for a moment then his ropes fell off of him and he stood up showed his claws saying, "Come in handing every once in a while."

"Shut up and do mine please," Rex requested, "so we can get out of here."

"Okay," Meowth said, "only 'cause you asked nicely, Twerp." Meowth sliced the ropes on Rex's ankles and wrists easily then Rex went to pick up his things. He put his bag on his back and his pokéballs on his belt.

From behind him the same voice from before yelled, "Hey you! Stop!"

"Stop this!" Meowth shouted and used its Fury Swipes on the man's face who screamed in pain. "What are you waiting for, Twerp? Let's scram!" Meowth then took off down the cave and Rex followed shortly thereafter.

The odd duo emerged from the cave several minutes of running later. Rex stopped and panted thinking to himself Was that guy wearing the same outfit as those creeps at the Viridian Pokémon Center? Is he one of those team rocked weirdoes, too? His train of thought was broken by Meowth saying, "Well, that was all good and fun but I'll be on my way before you cost me all nine of my lives. See ya, Twerp." He then found a nice tree which he climbed and curled up on a branch falling asleep almost instantly.

Rex rolled his eyes and headed for the city whose skyline he could see not that far away.

So yeah I'm really running out of steam on this one guys I'm not sure what to do with it from here but I like the story so imma try a bit longer before giving up.

And of course your lame joke of the day

Me: Rex, why did the Pidgey cross the road?

Rex: Its name it says its name!

Me:(With raised eyebrow) No, because it wanted to catch the Wurmple on the other side!

Bu duh tss
