From: Andrusi is in love with Amy Rose (andyvvv@aol.comagnemite) Subject: [PW!] [BBB] Posession, part II Newsgroups: alt.games.nintendo.pokemon Date: 2000/08/12 [NOTE: I have decided to begin putting a [BBB] tag on BBB-releated posts. Makes them easier to find.] Previously on PokéWars!: [Andy]: Maybe the Magnemites used up all their energy. [Ted with Drowsees in background]: Worship Voltifer. Destroy Magnallah. [Enimuram]: Magnemite... is... evil... [Enimuram approaches Magnemite and Electron carrying a blunt object.] [Optimus Prime]: And this time, no force in the universe can stop me. And now, the conclusion. Andy blinked. "Um, Enimuram? What are you doing with my shoe?" he asked. "And what are you talking about?" "Voltorb is good. Magnemite is evil," Enimuram droned. "Destroy." "Say what?" "Destroy Magnallah." "Look, it's not like I don't respect your religious beliefs or anything, but you're scaring me." Enimuram continued the nonsense about Voltorb being good. Andy walked up to him and grabbed the shoe. "Now give me that! We have Voltorbs to blow up!" Enimuram turned towards Andy. "Magnemite... must... be... destroyed." And he twisted his arm around, throwing Andy off balance. Enimuram then wrenched the shoe out of his fellow Bomb Ball Basher's hand and used it to whack him in the head. Andy was unable to dodge the attack, and fell to the floor, unconscious. The vibration shook the floor slightly, which in turn caused one of Andy's Pokéballs to roll off of a table. The Pokéball impacted the ground and released its contents: an Abra who had been sleeping but wasn't anymore. ">I'm up, I'm up!<" David said telepathically (it's an Abra thing). David looked around. ">Okay, what's...<" He saw Enimuram and the shoe, and took a quick look at the general condition of everyone's minds. ">So, Enimuram is being mentally controlled, Andy is out cold, and of course Flareon, Tentacool, Osiris, and Flicky only listen to their trainers. Gee, this is a pleasant situation.<" He teleported over to the Magnemites, grabbed them, and teleported to the bathroom. Then he locked the door. From across the street, Cyclonus watched a certain pair of trainers and their Pokémon. "Sir, there seems to be a small problem." "What?" "The female has closed the curtains. I can no longer get usable images." Brotlov growled and turned off a computer. "So much for my Web site," he said. "Check on the Bomb Ball Bashers, would you?" David sat on the counter, thinking. ">Now how am I supposed to solve this? I could snap Enimuram out of it with a Confusion attack, except I don't know Confusion because I haven't evolved yet.<" "Magne magnemite mag mite?" Electron suggested. ">No, I doubt that a Thundershock would be adequate.<" "Nemite magnemite mag?" Magnemite asked. ">Actually... yeah, that might do the trick. But we'll have to--<" A banging started on the door, accompanied by the muffled sound of Enimuram saying "Magnemite is evil. Voltorb is good." David sighed. ">I want to know what idiot would actually think that... Oh, right, Ted Brotlov.<" Meanwhile, inside Enimuram's mind... "Huh? What's happening?" Enimuram asked, looking at the inside of his own mind. "This is what the inside of your mind looks like," said a helmeted Rocket behind him. Enimuram whirled around and saw the face that went with the voice. "Brotlov!" "Well, sort of," the Rocket replied. "Actually, I'm just the effects of the real Brotlov's mental control. But, to make communication easier, I guess you can call me that if it helps. Not that anything will help much. After all, I have complete control of your brain and body. And I've thoroughly checked through every bit of knowledge you have." He produced a file folder and pulled out a piece of paper. "For example, I know about your crush on Tikal." "I don't have a crush on Tikal." "You don't?" Brotlov looked at the folder. "Oops, wrong file." He replaced the sheet of paper and returned the "Andy Renev" folder to its space in the recesses of Enimuram's mind. "The point is, I'm in charge of your brain." "I bet Andy's working on a way to change me back right now." Meanwhile, Andy was just recovering. "Ungh..." he eloquently stated. He looked at Enimuram, who was now trying to walk through the bathroom door. "Something's up with that guy." He looked around. "Where's Electron and Magnemite? ...and David?" he continued when he noticed a Pokéball missing. Andy picked up one of his Pokéballs. "Go, Flicky!" A mysteriously silent Pidgey appeared. "Flicky, go get that shoe from Enimuram." Flicky simply nodded, then flew over to the possessed Bomb Ball Basher. It then proceeded to "grab" the shoe and tried to fly away. Enimuram didn't even notice. "Worship *WHUMPH!* Voltifer. *WHUMPH!* Destroy *WHUMPH!* Magnallah. *WHUMPH!*" And then David appeared in the room. ">Andy!<" he "shouted". Andy blinked. "David? You can talk?" ">Telepathically. It's an Abra thing. Now listen. We need to use an electric attack on Enimuram with a greater magnitude than a Thundershock.<" "Okay. Um... where do we get a stronger electric attack?" A pause. ">Um...<" TBC (Will Andy, David, Electron, and Magnemite change Enimuram back to normal? Will Ted Brotlov's plan be foiled? Will Cyclonus say something hilariously funny? Find out on the next Bomb Ball Bashers!) -Andrusi &&
