"Xanotron! Go!" yelled Jones. A gigantic metal-like Pokémon popped out of the Pokéball that Jones threw. "Kabuslicer! Come out!" yelled Julius. A stick- like Pokémon with electric spinning saw blades on it's arms appeared. "Exeggcutioner! Go!" yelled Larry. The same Pokémon that Eric had fought appeared. "As you can see, these see, our new Pokémon we found in the storage area of this building are quite powerful, and we will have your Drowzee shortly," Jones said. "What?" Eric said. Jones said,"Oh, that's right. You're Dorzwee, er, Drowzee has the qualities we look for in a Pokémon! Intelligence!"."Strength!" Julius said."Loyalty!" Larry said."And one thing that makes him so very special, the ability to control minds!". "Control minds?" Eric said. "Yes! With him we will own this world, and all others! Nothing will stand in our way! Hahahaha, hahaha, hahahaha, hee,hee,hee,hoheeha,hehahehahehahah,hohohohehehehaah,hohahoahoahoahahoha!!!" Jones said, passing out. Judohan said,"Oh, I get it! hahahahahahahaha, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,
Everybody stared at Judohan. "Seriously, I don't see
what's so funny," Eric said. "Oh boy, a good laugh does
me well every now and again. Man, my gut hurts" Judohan
said. The Pokémon that belonged to Team Rocket were starting to
get impatient.
Xanotron started scratching itself and walking around. The
Kabuslicer started sharpening it's blades on the wing of the
Rocket Plane. Exeggcutioner just sat there, drooling on itself.
The members of Team Rocket were trying to get Jones to wake up.
Eric stood there tapping his foot, waiting for a battle while
Judohan was giggling away. Suddenly, gasoline started spraying
out of the Rocket Plane. "Kaboslicer, you idiot!"
Julius said. "We need something to plug the leak!"
Larry said. In all the confusion, Eric spotted what was making
the psychic field. It was an Alakazam. It was standing on the
Rocket Plane, oblivious to what was happening. Eric immediatly
had an idea. He pulled out a matchbook from his pocket and lit a
match. He threw it into the hole in the wing, grabbed Judohan and
ran to the door. The plane blew up in an amazing explosion. The
shock wave threw Eric and Judohan into the building. Eric hit the
wall, knocking him unconcious. Judohan, being so fat, didn't get
hurt, as his fat broke his fall. Ah, but what about our villians,
who were still on the roof? The blast knocked all the Pokémon
out cold. The Team Rocket members were each holding on something,
so they were safe. The Alakazam awoke from it's trance, still
safe in it's little psychic bubble.
When Eric awoke, he was surrounded by police officers and
doctors. His vision was blurred and he couldn't see well.
"Are you okay?" one of the doctors asked Eric. He moved
his limbs to test if they were broken. He felt a sharp pain when
he moved his leg. "OUCH! My leg, I think it's
broken..." Eric said. "Get this kid on a stretcher,
now!" one of the doctors said. Two people lifted him up and
put him on a floating strecher.A man doctor used a long rod to
x-ray is leg. "Yes, it's broken alright," the doctor
said. Eric could hear Team Rocket being arrested. "Team
Rocket will have it's day! Mark my words, we will, OW!"
Jones said until he was hit on the head with a club. "Shut
up!" a woman police officer said. Eric was brought
downstairs, to a room where he could be treated. The hole in the
steps was filled in with a quick drying cement called Cementix,
used for emergency situations. A woman nurse stepped in, carrying
a large gun-like object. "This is a Medi-laser, this will
mend your broken bones." she said "Will it hurt?"
Eric asked. "Not too much if you don't look at it," the
nurse said. Eric looked away and felt a stinging pain in his leg.
He moaned in pain. Suddenly, his leg went numb. "All done!
The feeling in your leg should come back in an hour.Are there any
other symptoms I should know about?" she asked. "My
vision is blurred and I can't see very well," Eric
replied."You should rest," the nurse said as she
stepped out of the room.
Eric fell asleep almost immediately. He had the same dream about
the award ceremony again. Just like last time, he woke up right
when he was opening the scroll. "Hola Seńor Burrito!"
Judohan said. Eric looked around and saw that he was inside of a
hospital now."What did you say?" Eric said in a hoarse
voice. "I said 'Hello Mr.Burrito' in Spanish!" Judohan
said. Eric cleared his throat. "Dat was pretty good thinking
back there!" Judohan said. The nurse came in and
said,"Has the feeling in your leg returned yet?" she
asked. Eric rubbed his eyes and his vision was no longer blurred.
He looked at the nurse and was stunned by her beauty.
"Uhhhhhh....yes," he said. "Has your vision gotten
any better?" "Ummmmmm.....yes," he said.
"Young man, is something wrong?" she asked.
"Uh,uh,uh everything is A-OK," he said as he sat up.
"Well good, I'll call in Doctor Warner to check if you're
fit to leave." she said as she left the room.
"Okay," he said in a squeaky voice. "Wow...she's
purty," Judohan said. "Look at this, I got
stitches!" Judohan said as he lifted the bandage on his
forehead. "Cool, huh?" Judohan said. Eric felt sick at
the sight of Judohan's scar.
"Ringringring! Ringringring! Phone call, phone call!
Ringringring! Ringringring! Phone call,phonecall!" yelled
the video phone in Eric's room. Eric pushed the Answer button.
"Eric! I heard about your heroic act at the Pokémon Center!
I'm very proud of you!" Prof. Garrison said. "And you
Sir, I thank you for your couragious saving of Eric's life!"
Garrison. "Well, I didn't actually save him, you
understand..." Judohan said, even though he would have liked
have taken credit for saving his life. "Oh, I heard that you
took a bullet for him and pushed him out of the way of a flying
train!" Prof. Garrison said. "Proffesor, who told you
that?" Eric asked. Well, a police officer told a nurse, who
told another nurse, who told a doctor, who told an ambulance
driver, who told a truck driver, who told a police officer who
told a doughnut shop owner, who told a kid who told his imaginary
friend who told a channeler, who told her sister, who told my
wife who told me." Garrison said. "My wife also told me
that Jones found a pile of gold that turned into a cow that ate
part of the building until it jumped over the moon and got stuck.
She also told me that Julius married to ten women and had the
ceremony in Neon Town and made a million yen(about $10,000) at
the slots. Is that true?"."if that's true, I'll eat my
hat." Eric said. "Oh I see. When you get better, what
are you going to do next?" Garrison asked. "Oh, I think
I'll stay in Pewter City for a couple of days, you know, doing a
little exploring and such," Eric said. Garrison
said,"Well, I'm glad you're doing okay. See you later, and
good luck." "Bye Professor!" Eric said. He turned
off the video phone. "I like that man, he's well
educated," Judohan said. A man in a white lab coat walked
in. "Well young man, let's have a look at you," he
said. He took Eric's blood pressure, temperature, and the many
tests that doctors perform. "Well, I don't see anything
wrong with you except you have a slight fever," the Doctor
said. "I think I'll let you go," he said. After Eric
had gotten his things together, he left the hospital.
As he was looking around the city, he spotted the one thing in
the world he loved most, a Video Game Building, about half the
size of the Pokémon Center (about 100 floors). He walked in and
saw a vast room. The place was littered with arcade machines, and
the sweet sound of mixed video game music and sound effects
filled Eric's head. He counted his money and put some in a token
machine. The machine gave him twenty tokens (he wanted to save
his money). Each token said "Mario's Gaming Castle". He
looked around at which game he wanted to play first. Ah, his
favorite, Sonic the Hedgehog 24. He inserted a token and pushed
the start button. His favorite video game character appeared on
the screen, running at light speed. As soon as the game gave Eric
control of the character, a time limit appeared at the top of the
screen. He had to make it to the goal in twenty seconds or he
lost. He ran through closing spike walls and jumped deep pits of
steaming lava and dodged thousands of robotic bees before
reaching his goal. His time was replenished back to twenty
seconds and he sped through. This level was a forest, filled with
robot bears and tigers. After fighting of them, he made it to the
goal. He made it easily through the next 5 levels, until he
reached the egyptian tomb level. Dodging fire was not easy but he
made it. Some spectators walked by to watch him. 7 levels later,
he was at the last level. He had to defeat Dr. Robotnik in 40
seconds or he would lose. He jumped and bashed the evil villian
until he was a pile of steaming debris. The game tallied up his
final score. His score 4 minutes 36 seconds, and his point score
was 29,323,494 points. He turned around to see a crowd of about
20 people cheering him on. A siren sounded and a man in a green
tuxedo walked in. "Congrats kid! You've got the highest
score ever recorded here on that game!" he said.
"As a prize, you will get this Pokémon!" the man
handed Eric a Pokéball. "Pokémon, Come out!" Eric
yelled.
