From: Amber Foxwing (creese@qwest.net) Subject: [PW!] What's up with Aprikorns?! Newsgroups: alt.games.nintendo.pokemon Date: 2001-08-10 22:19:10 PST (OOC: >only briefly interrupted by a man dripping with blood. Good one; very...interesting...makes a good challenge! I love challenges!) Amber began to get more and more worried as the trail of blood on the ground became bigger and bigger. Finally the came across the man collapsed in the road, with his Bulbasaur standing next to him worriedly. ~Nyura, can you hear me?~ she asked. (OOC: I know it was Nyara. I had thought it was Nyara in jap but its Nyura. So let's continue as if it was that way ALL along...please?) ~Yeah, Nyura hear you!~ the cat replied. ~Communicate through me with Bulbasaur and ask what happened! His mind is blocked, I can't ask myself.~ "Sn Sneasel snease?" she suddenly said, kneeling down. She felt the impending urge to run. "Bulba bul saur," it replied softly. Nyura was sickened, and that seemed to take control of her body. "Sneasle..." she said, trying not to retch. "Bulbabulba saur bulba!" Suddenly Nyura seemed like she was willing to accomplish anything. ~What's going on?~ she asked Nyura after she had bedded the Sneasel's emotions back down. ~The guy's name is Kanuku and he's a priest from Sprout Tower. He met up with Dharak, and he didn't want to battle. Dharak thrust a knife through his belly!~ Amber suddenly ran to the bushes in the side of the road and retched all over the shrubbery. "That's terrible!" she cried when she came back. "We have to get him out of here!" ~I know. That's not all. Weedsmoker wants us to drag him back to the Pokemon Center to try and heal him. Or at least a hospital...~ "I have an idea! Jason! Send out DJ!" Jason shrugged and tossed out his Chansey. "Use Softboiled!" Dj nodded. <On the man?> "Yes! Hurry!" Dj transferred some of his HP to the man so that he would live a bit longer. "Thank you DJ!" she said, returning him to his Pokeball and tossing it to Jason. She slung down her pack and took out a needle, thread, and a sweatshirt with drawstring neck, and pants. She quickly and deftly sewed the pants and shirt together like an outfit, and carefully put the man on it. She picked up the Drawstrings and dragged the man like a sled. "So what was that all about?!" Jason asked. "You got so sick, what happened?!" She told him and watched as Jason didn't move a muscle. "Boy. You must have a hard stomach," she said. Finally she dragged the man to the Pokemon Center, with Bulbasaur running behind... TBC...
