Subject: [PW!] Adventure gets a busy signal Date: 22 Oct 2002 15:35:54 -0700 From: wingcat@pacbell.net (Adrian Tymes) Organization: http://groups.google.com/ Newsgroups: alt.games.nintendo.pokemon Morning in Violet City saw a certain car parked outside the city's main pokemon center. Mike leaned on the car door, with bags under his eyes from a sleepless night, not consciously feeling the fatigue his second wind was surpressing. "Are you sure you don't want to keep looking?" Dee, human once again, finished putting his jacket back on and adjusted his hat. "Uh-uh. If he wants to bother me again, he'll find me. In the mean time, I've got rounds to make." Marcia was waiting impatiently at the door. "And just *where* have you been? We've got an emergency here! A wartortle whose shell got..." She blinked, and fingered a hole in Dee's jacket. "Where did you get this?" "Someone ran over me, shot me, and ran off." Marcia blinked. "And you didn't kill him on the spot?" Dee shrugged. "You said I shouldn't do that kind of thing, so I've been trying not to." Further inside, the center's Nurse Joy and a visiting Nurse Joy watched this, then whispered to one another. The visitor wrapped a lock of her hair around one finger, then both broke down in giggles. Marcia ignored the Joys and pulled Dee to the emergency room, where she knew he was about to save yet another pokemon's life. TBC? [OOC: Rob, hope I'm not assuming too much here - just that Marcia would eventually make use of Dee's help, once he offered it in an effort to please her.]
