An Adventure to Remember Part 6: by Dimitri Dixon
"Telekenisis"
"I haven't nicknames you guys yet, have I?" I asked turning to my Pokemon as
we sat in the Pokemon Center in Hardton Village. "I've been giving it a lot
of thought." I turned to Pikachu. "Pikachu, how would you like the nickname,
Sparky?"
Pikachu shook his head. "How about, Pika?" Pikachu gave it a thumbs
down. "How about Crash?"
Pikachu thought about it for a second. "Pikaaa, Pika!" It jumped up and
hugged me. Crash was Pikachu.
"Houndour, how about, Flame?" Houndour nodded in agreement. I looked up
at my Noctowl who had been quiet since I caught it. "Wazzup, Noctowl?" I
asked. I looked up at the flag pole that he was perched on.
"Noctowl, Noctowl," it said shaking its head.
"Come on, buddy. You can tell me anything. I know something is wrong."
Noctowl perched itself on top of my head and began to speak to me in
thought. "It was about this time a year ago when I was seperated from my
flock. Actually it was exactly a year ago today. I found them again in a
week, and they all used their Psybeams on me at the same time. I was attacked
by a group of wild Growlithe the next day. I was so bruised and battered, I
barely got away. With an injured wing, an injured tail, and an injured pride,
I was lucky to get away. So I hunted for myself and stole food from sleeping
trainers, and then you caught me a week ago. You've been really nice. By the
way, I would like for my nickname to be Nocty. That was my name in my old
flock of Hoothoot and Noctowl."
Noctowl flew off of my head. "Nocty, Flame, and Crash," I repeated.
Crash lied on my chest as we stayed at a hotel next to the Pokemon Center in
the village. Nocty was in a basket with blankets around him, and Flame, who
preferred the dark, lied in the empty closet with Swirly, Erika's Poliwag.
Star stayed in its Pokeball.
I was only half asleep when I heard a crash. Erika jumped up on the bunk
below me. I jumped right off of the top bunk, forgetting that Crash was on my
chest. He fell safely on top of a pillow. He darted out of the door after me.
John and Jill along with Grimer and Zubat were in the living room part
of the hotel room. Our table was broken in half and the big screened TV was
cracked. "John, I told you not to make so much noise!" Jill snapped. "Now the
twerps are awake."
"Well, let's waste no time in that case. Zubat, Wing Attack." Zubat's
wings glowed white and it flew at Erika's head,
"AAAHH!" Erika screamed. She dodged out of the way and Zubat went right
through the TV.
"Grimer, Smog Attack!" Jill cried. Her little gray Pokemon shot a black
substance from its mouth and it almost hit me in the chest, but I moved out
of the way. It hit the wall and started to melt through this.
"Crash, use your Thundershock!" I cried. My little Pikachu bolted out of
the room and used a huge Thundershock on Grimer. Grimer fell to the ground in
a purple puddle, but reformed itself.
"Swirly, use Swift attack," Erika said to her Poliwag. Swirly shot
little golden stars out of its swirled stomach and it hit Jill right in the
face. "Ohhh!" Jill held her face as blood dripped from it. I almost felt
sorry for her.
"Zubat, get up and use Bite." John's Zubat bit onto Swirly and flew into
the air. All of a sudden Flame appeared out of nowhere and tackled Zubat,
knocking Poliwag out of his mouth.
"That's Houndour's Faint Attack," John muttered as he backed to the
wall, in fear. Swirly, Crash, and Flame stared down Team Rocket and their
Pokemon.
"Flame, Ember, Crash, Thunderbolt!" I commanded.
"Swirly, use your most powerful, Bubblebeam!" The three attacks slammed
into Team rocket. They flew through the big window and vanished into the sky.
"Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!" they cried as they flew
through the night sky, but not the way they wanted to fly.
"Okay, so in order to get to the next gym, we have to go through Hardton
Village, and then Hardton Forest," I said as we walked through the little
town. "And we can get to the next city by Halloween if we only stop three
times."
"Well, let's get--" Erika started. She stopped dead when she saw two
water Pokemon washed up on shore. Corsola and Squirtle. They looked like they
had been traveling together.
"Crash, are they wild?" I asked. Crash looked up at me and nodded. The
Pokemon were in bad shape.
"We have to get them to a Pokemon Center," I said. I took a Pokeball out
of my pocket and threw it at Squirtle. I picked up the Pokeball and ran
towards the Pokemon Center about three blocks back. Erika caught the Corsola
and we ran to the center. Ran the whole way. "Weren't you two just here 10
minutes, ago?" Nurse Joy asked.
"We found two Pokemon, and they're hurt really badly," I said. "We need
them to be healed. It looks like they're bruised and burned. Please help us!"
The two Pokemon were rushed into the E.R. "Squirtle's breathing rate is
extremely labored," Nurse Joy said. "It needs critical treatment. Corsola is
fading. We need the electric pushers!"
A male doctor ran into the room. He was wheeling in a silver cart. He
put Corsola into it and plugged a cord in the cart in. Corsola vibrated and
whimpered. Squirtle had a mask over his face, since it could no longer
breathe on its own. "Will they be okay?" Erika asked the male doctor.
"They'll be fine," he said. "Well, I'm sure that Corsola will, but
Squirtle might have to stay here overnight."
I was about to thank him and go check when the next bus left to the edge
of Hardton Forest, when a trainer walked into the center. He had on a black
sleeveless shirt and green baggy pants. He had gotten a bunch of people to
sign his pants.
He handed three Pokeballs to Burse Joy and she put them on a tray and
placed them in a healing machine.
"Hey," he said. He sat down and watched the baseball game that was on
TV. The Seakings were beating the Electabuzz 5 to 1.
"Hey," I said back. "I'm DK. I see you like baseball."
"Yep," he said. "I'm Tyler. But all my friends call me Tye. Who do you
want to win?"
"The Seakings," I said. I sat down on the couch beside him. Tye seemed
like a nice kid. He took off his hat revealing a red headband and braids. He
looked a lot like Brock-- except he had exceptable eyes.
"Hey, do you have a father named Brock?" I asked.
"Yeah, I do," Tye said. "Why do you ask? Is he in some kind of trouble?"
"No. But that means that we're cousins! Brock is my uncle!"
Tye and I slapped high fives. "Hey, your Squirtle is fully healed,"
Nurse Joy said. She handed me my Pokeball. "It happened all of a sudden.
Almost like... magic, or some sort of telekenisis."
"Hey," Erika said. "Who's he?"
"This is my cousin, Tye." Nurse Joy handed his Pokeballs back. "Well,
your Pokemon are fully healed. Here you go."
Tye had a Gastly, a Spearow, and a Totodile. The three of us walked to
the bus stop. Another adventure would await us.
