Chapter 106: Back to the old Drawing Board.


Jake was in his car, traversing over water modified by his Porygon 2. He was leaving the area of Lubbers Island, South Star Island & Loote Island, heading to Shaba Island in the Southern Islands. He had an amazing time at the Full Moon Party, but it was time he finished what he started, and go for the Final Badge in the Southern Islands Pokemon League. He just needed to find a way to get all the way south to Hole in the Island, where the final gym was. Jake pulled in and docked at Crossing Beach, and entered the office of the Ferry Service.
“Hey, is Jessie, James and Meowth here?” Jake asked.
“Right here!” Jessie said, as her, James and Meowth appeared behind the counter. All of them looked distressed and covered in dried cement.
“Wow, you guys don’t look so good.” Jake said.
“Yeah, after you beat up my Victreebel, we ran to go find Giovanni but we fell into a trap, and what could only be a Human-Type Pokemon then covered our bodies in cement, created by himself. We thought we were dead, until a beautiful Golden Light appeared, melting away the cement, freeing us from the hole. We could not see its face, but we could tell it was smiling at us.” James spoke and said.
“Wow...” Jake said, confused as to all fuck.
“I was wondering.” said Jessie “If it had anything to do with how “alive” the island felt.”
“Yeah, anyway. I want to use the computer, is it alright if I do?” Asked Jake.
“Sure, go right ahead.” Meowth said, pointing to the computer in the corner.
“Thank you.” Jake said, as he approached the computer and activating it. “Go Porygon 2.”
“Poooory!” said Porygon 2. Jake connected a USB cord to Porygon 2.
“Time to check in on my email.” Jake said, bringing up his email account. “Well, check it out! It’s an email from Marble.” Jake said, clicking on the link to the email from Marble...

A letter to my Pokemon Trainer colleagues,

I have news for you all. I have discovered the whereabouts of one of our fellow trainers who left Pallet Town the same time all of us did. His name is Andy, and he had been transformed into an Abra by another of our colleagues. We must soon meet up to discuss what we can do to restore Andy to his proper form. Please, be on the lookout for Jason. He is evil, pure evil. Do not trust him...

~ Marble

“What the...” Jake said. “I remember that guy, he had a baby Squirtle! Wow, to think Jason had been responsible all along.” Jake stood up from the computer. “Whatever it is Jason is orchestrating, I don’t think it is truly in the best interest for the World of Pokemon, I’ve seen plenty crazy shit the past few months. We must protect the World of Pokemon before it truly ends..."

Chapter 105: Just a Few


There were beeps and similar noises going on in the laboratory, and the blue, red and purple LED lights gave it its atmosphere. Professor Sashkatch, and Alex, the good, brown-haired one, were at their desks. The sliding doors then opened, with the Star Trek *swoosh*. “Ah, Matthew, Brian, it is you.” Professor Sashkatch said.
“Professor Sashkatch, we have tremendous news. We have found, and captured Mewfour.” Brian said.
“You.... what?” Alex said, his jaw had dropped. “You actually found Mewthree’s brother?”
“Correct, and I have captured him.” Matthew said. “Under strange circumstances, I had been sent away from Cinnabar Island and ended up in the Southern Islands. I came across an island that caught my interest, and it was there we discovered Mewfour. Almost as if it was fate.”
“This is great news.” Professor Saskatch said. “Now, Mewthree & Mewfour are both in good hands. My biggest fear was that the Evil Powers would acquire them... Kids, nothing good is happening in the world of Pokemon anymore. And soon, we will have to have a meeting, with all of your colleagues. We must discuss what we are to do about the Evil Powers... The one who had captured all of the official Kanto Legendaries, including Mewtwo. He has somehow made it so the World of Pokemon does his bidding. In just the 8 months since all of you became Pokemon Trainers, he has gained tremendous power.”
“It is good that Mewthree & Mewfour will be reunited. We will soon send dispatches to the others, our meeting will be in Vermilion City.” Alex said.

The afternoon vista at Cerulean Cape was beautiful. Spring was in the air and the Pokemon in winter hibernation were starting to come back out. At the Cerulean Lighthouse, Adam had been visiting with Bill, the rare Pokemon Collector. Adam & Bill were sitting in Bill’s living room.
“Bill, as I have already discussed with you, I am searching for Secret Pokemon, do you know of any leads that could help me with that?” Adam asked to Bill.
“Well Adam...“ Bill responded with his stupid voice. “A few months ago, I received a letter, as well as this map. The author of the letter claimed to have discovered a treasure deep within the Mountains of Mystery, apart of the same mountain range as Mt. Moon.”
“Wow, treasure inside the mountains?” Adam asked.
“I’m not exactly sure if this has any correlation to any Secret Pokemon, but this is my suggestion to you, Adam. Go pursue whatever the treasure is.” Bill said, giving Adam the map.
“Bill, thank you so much.” Adam said, taking the map with gratitude. “I hope whatever Secrets lie within the Mountains of Mystery will be astonishing. Adam got up and left Bill’s Lighthouse, and then started his journey. The closest way to the base of the Mountains of Mystery was to cut through North Kanto Forest. Adam started his journey through the uncharted North Kanto Forest.

Chapter 104: The Rediscovery


Marble had walked into the Viridian City Pokemon Center holding an unconscious Abra. Marble’s Articuno followed in, much to the surprise and glee of several common Pokemon Trainers. “Nurse Joy! Is there a Nurse Joy close by?” Marble asked, as he clutched the Abra.
“I’m here!” The Nurse Joy said, appearing alongside some Chansey’s.
“Chansey!” said the Chansey’s.
“Nurse, after winning my 8th Pokemon Badge, my Articuno pointed out this Abra lying unconscious on the ground. I can communicate with my Articuno, and it told me there was something about this Abra. Could you please help it?” Marble asked to the Nurse Joy.
“Of course, helping Pokemon for free is what I live for.” Nurse Joy said.

The Abra was fully restored to health and was resting in the recovery room. Marble & Articuno sat there watching it sleep.
“Articuno!” said Articuno.
“So what was it you wanted to say about Abra?” Marble asked Articuno.
“Articuno...” Articuno said, not responding with human speech.
“Hmmm, well...” Marble said, getting up and stretching himself. “I feel like some shut eye is best. Its been a good day.” Marble said. “You should rest too Articuno, get into your Poke Ball.” Marble said, recalling Articuno and walking to the Pokemon Center Hostel.

It was now morning time at the Pokemon Center, the usual traffic of Pokemon Trainers brightened up the day for Marble, who was already awake and at the front desk, hoping to hear an update on Abra. “Hello Marble.” said the Nurse Joy. “Abra is alive and doing fine.” Nurse Joy said. “However, our tests have brought back something very, very interesting.”
“Huh? What is that?” Marble asked.
“Well, experts thought it to be impossible for Pokemon, but your Abra seems to have full, human memory.
“What?” Marble said.
“It could only mean one thing, the soul of this Abra was born a Human.” Nurse Joy said...

Marble had walked into Abra’s recovery room. Abra got up with happiness in its eyes. Happy to see the Pokemon Trainer who rescued him. “What are you?” Marble asked.
“Abra. Abra...” Abra said.
“I hope you’ll help this time.” Marble said, taking out a Poke Ball. “Go Articuno.”
“Articuno!” said Articuno.
“So Articuno, whats up with Abra.

“Help... my real name is... Andy...” said a voice that seemed to be coming from both Articuno, and Abra. “I... am Andy...........”

I was among the several new Pokemon Trainers to leave Pallet Town the same time, along with Adam, Matthew, Brian, Jake and... Jason. It was he, Jason, who did this to me. I’m flat out starting with it. He had tricked me, and had manipulated me into doing his bidding. He used me and my Pokemon to discover Operation I.S.O., aka Mewtwo. He used me to take me out of the picture so I don’t reveal his Secrets. Oh I’ll release his Secrets. It was horrible, having to live the past 6-8 months as an Abra. I had to live in the alleys of Saffron and Celadon City from time to time, making friends with other stray Pokemon. I will admit, it was fun being able to talk to Pokemon! But still, it was horrible what Jason had done to me, and what he has done so far. He has the God in his Pocket. On a leash. He’s sold his soul to higher powers, all for the sake of being the most Powerful Pokemon Trainer in existence, and to learn as many Secrets of the Pokemon World as he can, before anyone else could find them. I worry what he has done with my own Pokemon. My poor baby Squirtle, my Human-Type Pokemon Ninja... Oh God, someone please help me......

Andy the Abra was crying tears following his sad tale. “This is madness. Jason must be stopped. Before it is too late...” Andy said.
“Wow.” Marble said, dumbstruck to find Jason to be evil. “Andy, I am honorable and trustworthy. Would you like to be captured by me for safe keeping? I know a few of the trainers you mentioned, we will work together to stop Jason.”
“Thank you Marble. We must soon round up the others, so much more is at stake, as the World of Pokemon has been falling and crumbling, and becoming what it wasn’t meant to be.” Andy said, as he jumped into the Poke Ball Marble threw, and allowed himself to be captured. Marble then left the Pokemon Center.
“Okay, lets go Articuno!” Marble said to his Articuno.
“Articuno!” said Articuno.
“Use Fly!” Marble said, climbing onto Articuno’s back, and Flying away into the horizon, to parts unknown.

Going through the motions, it seems...

So guess what? It seems I have no interest in writing this, it seems. It was long intervals between any writing phases, mainly due to the Spring Break crowd (which, by the way, was epic), personal problems, and work eating away all my time and soul. Heck, I've got here 3 Chapters written, and while typing them out, it just seemed like I was going through the motions, doing it just so I can hurry up and get it done with. That's the way I've felt about this whole story. I'm pretty bad at writing despite my random creativity, and it never was my passion. Frankly, I would have loved to get this out in an animated or comic form, but I'm horrible at drawing.

At any rate, enjoy these chapters, whoever you are that has read this fanfic. It's really going to be for the best that I finish this, especially before summer...
