Molli

I wanted to help Sara. How could I just sit there and watch when she was standing there, risking her life to save mine? I couldn't do that, not when someone is trying to save me. I got up and ran over to Sara's side. I was ready to fight alongside her, and luckily I had learned some moves after being stranded in this big forest. Sure, the Ekans was about twice my size, but I wasn't about to let that stop me. I had to show not only the big bully, but Sara also, that big things came in small packages. He hissed at us, and then lunged at us with a Bite attack. The battle had begun.

"Watch out!" Sara yelled as she knocked me off to the side. I flew off balance, and Sara was hit. I wasn't about to let that snake get away with that. To see my friend get hurt on account of me, that was crossing the line. I decided to take the advantage, since he was now on the ground with Sara's tail in his grip. I began to gather electrical energy throughout my body, and my whole body became shrouded with electricity. I then ran at him and rammed right into his side, shocking him and, in turn, that released Sara. She looked at me and asked, "Did you just use Spark?"

"Mayyyyybe" I said in a sly kind of way. Just then, I noticed that Ekans was recovering from his "shocking experience" and then released a Sludge Bomb attack at us. With quick thinking, I shouted, "Light Screen!" and immediately a light yellow barrier appeared around me and Sara. The poison attack hardly did anything, and this angered our opponent very much. He came in for another Bite attack, this time towards Sara, but she learned from last time and jumped over him right before he hit her. Then she quickly turned around and used a Tackle attack on him. What amazed me was how fast she had moved to dodge the attack.

"Molli!" Sara shouted, "We need to get away from here now! Let's find a way to keep him in place without running after us!"

I understood, and I knew just what to do. Luckily, I had the perfect move for a quick getaway. But I had to wait until the perfect moment to use it because if it failed, then he would learn my strategy and get the upperhand. Before I could even think of what happened, he struck out and had me in his jaws, from the neck down. I wasn't as quick as Sara, but that was where my move came in handy. "Sara, get ready!" I shouted towards my Normal type companion, and then I began to use my secret weapon: Sing. It was a good thing that Ekans hadn't covered my mouth, and I was right next to him so in a matter of seconds, he became very drowsy and fell into a deep slumber. Sara ran over and pried open the snake's mouth so I could escape and we bolted out of there.

"Yes! That was so awesome! I can't believe we actually beat up that stupid Ekans. When you used Spark to save me, I was like, whoa!" Sara said. She was talking so fast about the battle I could hardly keep up with what she was saying. But as she was yammering on and on, I realized that we had another problem.

"Hey Sara?" I asked.

"Yep?"

"I know that we did a great job with our battle and all, but how do we get out of here?"

"Oh, I have no idea. I can't remember how I got here. I guess we just keep walking until we see light. Maybe we will meet a friendly Flying type who can help us along the way."

I had some problems with what she had said: First of all, after that previous encounter I doubt we will meet any nice Pokemon. Also, who knows how big this forest was? But what other choice did we have? So we began to walk, searching for some sort of way out. While we were traveling, however, I was beginning to feel weak, for before Sara showed up I had gotten pretty banged up from that snake. But for some reason, I felt like I was getting very sleepy. I knew it couldn't have been from using Sing, because that wasn't even possible. "Sara, do you feel sleepy or anything?" I asked.

"Come to think of it, I do feel a little exhausted. I don't know why. I was wide awake just a minute ago." I could tell that this lethargic feeling wasn't normal, because at that moment we collapsed and I became very drowsy. I looked over at Sara and she had become unconscious. I wasn't far behind, but the last thing I remember before everything went black was seeing a tall, blue figure closing in…..

The first Pokemon battle in this story! But what happened to Sara and Molli? What ever became of Nicole? And what was this "blue figure" Molli explained. I'll give you guys a hint: It wasn't a smurf. Stay tuned for updates!
