Flame returns to Mew's humble abode, and gets a little suprise from a friendly face (for once)
Sorry it too me so long, I've been busy with coursework and whatnot. I hope to have another Episode done by wednesday, maybe thursday at the latest.
Also thanks for the 5000+ hits. Without so many, I'd probably have given up and never made it to the big 40.
Now comment damnit! I want to reach 100 Reviews next.
Episode Fourty: Suprise!
The transportation was a little more sudden that time, ending with me falling on my arse.
"Sorry 'bout that, Flame. But I was in a bit of a hurry and forgot to stabilise the warp thingamajig," Mew said, hovering above the pool.
"You did that on purpose," I growled, my temper beginning to flare up.
"The hell he did," came a voice, one I thought I would never hear again, "what? No hug?"
Seeing my sister again, especially since she definatly was dead, was enough to activate brain lockdown mode.
"Wha? How?" I blurted out, making me seem like a terminaly retarded person.
"Okay, this time try filling in the rest of the words," Mew sighed. Itook several deep breaths before continuing, "how the hell are you here?"
"Oh ain't that nice? I could go again if you'd prefer," Nina said, with a raised eyebrow (well, eye-scale)
She hadn't changed pysicaly since I last saw her, which was about three years previously, so I was now bigger than my elder sister.
"No. I meant, how are you still in existance? You're dead."
"Thank Mew, although I can only 'exist' in this world. I can't go back into the real world," Nina said. She noticed me confused expression and laughed, "I don't fully understand it either."
Mew floated down so that he was between us, "okay, who's for Lunch? I'm starved."
The stone table reformed, laden with food once more. Both Mew and Nina dived in, but I didn't feel like eating. Finding out your long dead sibling can still exist does that to you. I sat away from them and stared at a berry I had in my paw, for what seemed like minutes.
I was slapped from my thoughts, literally, as a large branch smashed me over the back of the head.
"What the hell, Mew!" I yelled, jumping up and was about to launch a fireball into Mew's face when I realised that Mew was still eating, "Nina? What was that for?"
"I wanted to get you out of your angsty thoughts, a big stick seemed like the way to go."
If she hadn't been dead for three years, I'd have smashed her over the head with a rock. So instead I took it as calm as possible. And lobbed a handfull of berry mush at her instead. She wiped the splattered berries off of her face and glared at me, "You didn't just," she started.
"Oh I did," I interrupted, quickly gathering another handfull and letting it fly.
"This means war!"
She ducked under my volley and diving tackled me to the floor. I managed to heave her off, using my extra size and weight, and lept onto the food rock. I scooped up a leafull of half mashed berries and launched it at Nina, who rolled out of the way and fired her own volley at me.
I managed to avoid the bombardment by diving to the side.
"Do you mind? That nearly hit me. Waste of perfectly good food," Mew grumbled from his place at the rock, still eating.
Me and Nina made eye contact and she grinned, baring all her teeth.
"You're going down," Nina yelled, winking at me.
"The hell I am," I countered, knowing exactly what her plan was.
We got to our feet and stood, on opposite sides of the table, while staring eachother down. I saw, out of the corner of my eye, a ball of dried grass roll past. At the exact same time, we scooped up some more berries and both ended up with two handfulls each.
"Three."
"Two."
"One!" Nina yelled as she let loose a fast shot in my direction. I sidestepped and counterattacked with one of my own, while launching my other handfull at Mew. She dodged mine and followed up with a double handed throw at Mew.
The cat took mine shot on the forehead, making him look up and take Nina's right between the eyes. The force of the attack knocked the pink Pokémon onto his back while me and Nina celebrated.
Of course, a minute later, we found ourself pinned down by heavy supressive fire as Mew psychicaly hurled berries and small rocks at us from all directions.
"I think we pissed him off."
"Gee, Ya think?" I said sarcasticaly, while ducking under a flying stone.
As quick as it started (instantaniously for all you more idiotic people, or do I need to dumb it down further), the bombardment stopped.
"Flame, sorry to ruin your moment. But you're going to have to go back to your body now," Mew said, looking at the pool of water.
"What? Why?"
"I cannot explain, but you have too."
"You're not making any sense. But, then again, you never do. Fine. I'll go back," I muttered as I walked over to the pool.
"I'd ask you to come visit but that'd involve you getting beat up," Nina laughed as I felt myself get dizzy and my vision faded once more. 'Welcome back to hell, population: Me.'
