Akito blinked. That was unexpected. The Pikachu looked angry, not just towards the trainer now sizzling on the ground, but towards Akito also. It was clear that the little rodent was spent however. "A Pikachu. I wonder.... Jolteon, Thunderbolt." "JOL!" One bolt of lightning later, and the Pikachu was on it's back. "Hmm. I thought Electric Pokemon were strong against their own type. It appears this is a runt," he patted Jolteon on its (non spiky area of its) head, "or you are too strong." "Jol!" Now Akito pondered what to do. He might as well take the Pikachu back to Team Rocket headquarters, worthless as it was. He returned it to it's ball and pocketed it. As for the "trainer" (a very loose interpretation) who owned it, well, might as well just leave him here. Maybe one of the wardens would come and take him away later. The thought process was stopped by the whistling of wind up above, as Aerodactyl descended from the sky, a few trickles of blood running down it's maw. It was obviously full - for a few hours or so. "Hello Aero. Feed well?" "Roooooo!" "Oh that's good..... say, why don't you just continue and devour this.... joke of a... whatever he is." Aerodactyl staggered forward on it's tiny feet that had difficulty carrying it's rather large frame. It's jaws opened, saliva dripping from it's gums.... and then it stopped. Paused in thought for quite some time, it stopped and retracted it's head. "What is it? You've never turned down a meal before!" "rooooo........" a very low pitched whine for a change. "Unusual. Maybe it has taste after all." From a distance behind him, Akito heard the spinning of wheels and the roar of an engine as two wardens approached in a Safari jeep. "Can it be?" one said, preparing a shotgun. "An Aerodactyl? They're extinct!" The other spun the wheel, pivoting the jeep 90 degrees and bringing the jeep skidding to a halt. "You, whoever you are, hands in the air!" "Looks like he's from Team Rocket!" the other one shouted as he readied his weapon. "Oh my, you are an observant man. I can see how difficult it must be to get a job as a warden...." Sarcastic, as usual. "Quiet, or I'll shoot! Hands up!" "Sorry, old man. You might be fast on the draw, but are you faster than.... A JOLTEON?" Accompanying his words came a wave of electricity, which struck the jeep. The two men felt their strength sap away as the Thunder Wave slowed them down. "Uhhh..... Rhyhorn..... go..... take down...." One managed to drop a Pokeball, and a Rhyhorn appeared in it's place. The other got out a radio and started to stammer a few comments. Akito knew that he could probably beat the Rhyhorn with all the Pokemon he had, but that would take time, and no doubt other wardens were on their way. Much as he hated to flee, it seemed the strategic thing to do right now. Taking a leap backwards onto it's rock-like back, he yelled to Aerodactyl to take off. Calling Jolteon back (who was almost hit by Rhyhorn), Akito soared away to freedom, as several more jeeps showed up and began to blast away with their firearms. Fortunately Aerodactyl's skin was tough enough to ignore the shots. Once clear of the Safari Zone, Akito turned around to find he was not alone on the Aerodactyl's back. Nisemon was present, asleep of course, slumped obver it's frame. "What the?" TBC.
